  "description": "MIME::Field::ParamVal versions before 5.521 for Perl turn an RFC 2231 filename with a hyphenated language tag into an empty recommended filename.  A parameter such as filename*=utf-8\u0027en-US\u0027payload.exe is converted to an encoded word with the language tag appended to the charset. The decoder strips the language suffix only when it is a single word, so it cannot resolve the charset UTF-8*EN-US and returns an empty string. The recommended_filename() method returns that empty string rather than falling back to the name parameter.  Other mail readers return payload.exe. A remote sender can get an attachment past a policy that checks file extensions on the recommended filename.",
