Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for fetchmail.

CVE-2026-94184[0]:
| A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in fetchmail when built
| with NTLM support. A malicious or compromised mail server
| advertising NTLM authentication can send a crafted Type 2 challenge
| that causes fetchmail to write past a fixed stack buffer while
| building the NTLM authenticate response. This may lead to remote
| code execution depending on stack-frame layout, or to authentication
| failure or process termination under memory hardening.  Affects
| v5.0.8 through v6.6.6.
