A remote user can send a specially crafted email message that, when processed by the target user, will cause the target user's client to crash [CVE-2010-0161]. Clients that are joined to an Active Directory server under Vista or Windows 7 and that use SSPI authentication are affected.
A remote user can send a specially crafted email message with attachments that, when processed by the target user, will cause the target user's client to crash [CVE-2010-0163]. Ludovic Hirlimann reported this vulnerability.
