  Mageia 2021-0070: mutt security update (Feb 5)
 

It was discovered that Mutt incorrectly handled certain email messages. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service because rfc822.c in Mutt through 2.0.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (mailbox unavailability) by sending email messages with sequences of semicolon characters in RFC822 address fields (aka terminators of empty groups).

  Mageia 2021-0069: nodejs security update (Feb 5)
 

Node.js versions before 10.23.1, 12.20.1, 14.15.4, 15.5.1 are vulnerable to a use-after-free bug in its TLS implementation.

If the DoWrite method does not return an error, this object is passed back to the caller as part of a

  Mageia 2021-0068: nodejs-ini security update (Feb 5)
 

It was discovered that there was an issue in nodejs-ini, where an application could be exploited by a malicious input file. This affects the package ini before 1.3.6. If an attacker submits a malicious INI file to an application that parses it with ini.parse, they will pollute the prototype on the application. This can be exploited further depending on the context

  Mageia 2021-0067: messagelib security update (Feb 4)
 

In KDE KMail, an attacker in possession of S/MIME or PGP encrypted emails can wrap them as sub-parts within a crafted multipart email.
