CVE-2001-0365 describes a critical vulnerability in Qualcomm Eudora versions prior to 5.1. This flaw allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on a victim's system if the "Use Microsoft Viewer" and "allow executables in HTML content" options are enabled, by sending a specially crafted HTML email containing JavaScript with ActiveX controls and malicious code embedded in IMG tags. With a CVSS score of 7.5 (High), this vulnerability poses a significant risk due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and potential for complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While there is no evidence of active exploitation or Metasploit/Nuclei modules, an ExploitDB entry (EDB-20688) confirms the existence of public exploit code, though community discussion and media coverage remain minimal.
