A recent announcement of ripMIME 1.2.12 has been superceded with a new release which covers several issues as mentioned in 3APA3A@SECURITY.NNOV.RU's content-exploits analysis post.

Specifically,

        "\0 data poisoning" and "fake-end-of-line termination" (due to fgets()) have been immediately covered.

Issues with UTF formatting is still present (although detection of the data content is not affected, as content-scanners should not use the file name as anything more than a subtle-guide).

        ripMIME is available at http://pldaniels.org/ripmime

Regards.
