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). A small email message from the attacker can cause large memory
consumption, and the victim may then be unable to see email messages from
other persons.
