    Package: courier-imap
    Version: 3.0.5.20040712-1
    Severity: grave
    Tags: security upstream fixed-upstream sarge sid

    There is an vulnerability in the authlib/debug.c's auth_debug function that
    is exploitable when DEBUG_LOGIN isn't set to 0. Details are in http://www.idefense.com/application/poi/display?id=131&type=vulnerabilities

    The courier-imap version in woody does not appear to be vulnerable as it
    does not have an auth_debug function.
