CVE-2011-1929: Input Validation
First published: Thu May 19 2011(Updated: )
Dovecot has released version 1.2.17 [1] and 2.0.13 [2] to address a potential crash, and possibly mailbox corruption, when dovecot parsed header names that contained NUL characters. This was due to a pointer possibly pointing past allocated memory. An upstream patch [3] is available.
