Check for the version of the mutt package
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2004:010 (mutt).
A bug in mutt was reported by Neils Heinen that could allow a remote attacker to
send a carefully crafted mail message that can cause mutt to segfault and
possibly execute arbitrary code as the user running mutt.
The updated packages have been patched to correct the problem.
