    Vulnerability : programming error
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2011-1929
    Debian Bug : 627443

    It was discovered that the message header parser in the Dovecot mail
    server parsed NUL characters incorrectly, which could lead to denial
    of service through malformed mail headers.


    The oldstable distribution (lenny) is not affected.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.2.15-7.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.0.13-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your dovecot packages.
