CVE-2002-1271 (2002-11-12)

The Mail::Mailer Perl module in the perl-MailTools package 1.47 and earlier uses mailx as the default mailer, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by inserting them into the mail body, which is then processed by mailx.

NAME

Mail::Field::AddrList - object representation of e-mail address lists

DESCRIPTION

Don't use this class directly! Instead ask Mail::Field for new instances based on the field name!

SYNOPSIS

use Mail::Field::AddrList;

$to = Mail::Field->new('To');
$from = Mail::Field->new('From', 'poe@daimi.aau.dk (Peter Orbaek)');

$from->create('foo@bar.com' => 'Mr. Foo', poe => 'Peter');
$from->parse('foo@bar.com (Mr Foo), Peter Orbaek <poe>');

# make a RFC822 header string
print $from->stringify(),"\n";

# extract e-mail addresses and names
@addresses = $from->addresses();
@names = $from->names();

# adjoin a new address to the list
$from->set_address('foo@bar.com', 'Mr. Foo');

NOTES

Defines parsing and formatting according to RFC822, of the following fields: To, From, Cc, Reply-To and Sender.
