<p>Matthias Andree reports:</p>
<blockquote cite="http://fetchmail.berlios.de/fetchmail-SA-2008-01.txt">
<p>Gunter Nau reported fetchmail crashing on some messages; further
debugging by Petr Uzel and Petr Cerny at Novell/SUSE Czech Republic
dug up that this happened when fetchmail was trying to print, in
-v -v verbose level, headers exceeding 2048 bytes. In this
situation, fetchmail would resize the buffer and fill in further
parts of the message, but forget to reinitialize its va_list
typed source pointer, thus reading data from a garbage address found
on the stack at addresses above the function arguments the caller
passed in; usually that would be the caller's stack frame.</p>
