Short explanation
MIME::Parser versions before 5.521 for Perl allow memory exhaustion via indented error messages from a truncated, deeply nested message (S0).
Since defaults place no limit on nesting depth, stored diagnostics grow with the square of N and can exhaust system resources (S0).
What should be done?
- Follow vendor advisories and available updates (S0)

Show the technical text from the sources
MIME::Parser versions before 5.521 for Perl allow memory exhaustion via indented error messages from a truncated, deeply nested message. Each stored parser diagnostic is indented by three spaces per nesting level. When a message nested N levels deep ends without its closing boundaries, every level logs an error at its own depth, so the stored diagnostics grow with the square of N. The defaults place no limit on nesting depth.
