Hello,
maybe this is nothing new, but anyway:
Certain versions of SerialPOP produce a nice Segmentation Fault if the user
specifies a POP/SMTP host name that is longer than 128 characters. This is
caused by a buffer overflow in a function which generates log output. I
know some variants have this fixed but others seem to be vulnerable.
