ETK-2026-4001Zero's internal tracking ID, independent of the CVE number.
waiting for further signalsZero needs more public information before it can validate it.description
mail-mime-parser may use excessive CPU when decoding specially formed MIME header values. An unauthenticated sender can delay mail processing by submitting a message with oversized reassembled RFC 2231 parameters, if the application parses untrusted mail and accesses header parameters.
mitigation
Upgrade mail-mime-parser to 3.0.10, 4.0.9 or later.
fixed in 3.0.10, 4.0.9
outcome
Contextual, not validated: no deterministic check could cover this one, and no technique passed our review.
