Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora 25's latest update enhances security by addressing MS-TNEF attachment vulnerabilities, introducing crucial patches for better protection against threats.
Release 1.4.14 includes security bug fixes introduced in 1.4.13 and a further bug fix

Summary

This application provides a way to unpack Microsoft MS-TNEF MIME attachments.

It operates like tar in order to unpack files of type "application/ms-tnef",

which may have been placed into the MS-TNEF attachment instead of being

attached separately.

Such files may have attachment names similar to WINMAIL.DAT

Release 1.4.14 includes security bug fixes introduced in 1.4.13 and a further

bug fix. The tnef-dolphin file manager integration is updated to suit the

kf5/qt5 base.
