Cause

This issue occurs because a meeting request contains an extremely large attendee address or display name. When the meeting request is opened in Microsoft Office Outlook or in OWA, the Exchange Collaboration Data Objects (EXCDO) component helps to process iCalendar object. However, EXCDO does not have a restriction for the address length or for name length. This causes the crash.
