=========================================================== 
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-387-1          November 28, 2006
dovecot vulnerability
CVE-2006-5973
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 6.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
  dovecot-common                           1.0.beta3-3ubuntu5.4

Ubuntu 6.10:
  dovecot-common                           1.0.rc2-1ubuntu2.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

Dovecot was discovered to have an error when handling its index cache 
files.  This error could be exploited by authenticated POP and IMAP 
users to cause a crash of the Dovecot server, or possibly to execute 
arbitrary code.  Only servers using the non-default option 
"mmap_disable=yes" were vulnerable.
