Fedora Legacy Test Update Notification

Name        : imap
Versions    : rh7.3: imap-2001a-10.1.legacy
Versions    : rh9: imap-2001a-18.1.legacy
Versions    : fc1: imap-2002d-3.1.legacy
Summary     : Server daemons for IMAP and POP network mail protocols.
Description :
The imap package provides server daemons for both the IMAP (Internet
Message Access Protocol) and POP (Post Office Protocol) mail access
protocols. The POP protocol uses a "post office" machine to collect
mail for users and allows users to download their mail to their local
machine for reading. The IMAP protocol allows a user to read mail on a
remote machine without downloading it to their local machine.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Updated imap packages that fix security issues are now available.

The imap package provides server daemons for both the IMAP (Internet
Message Access Protocol) and POP (Post Office Protocol) mail access
protocols.

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the c-client IMAP client. An attacker
could create a malicious IMAP server that if connected to by a victim could
execute arbitrary code on the client machine. The Common Vulnerabilities
and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0297
to this issue.

A logic error in the CRAM-MD5 code in the University of Washington IMAP
(UW-IMAP) server was discovered. When Challenge-Response Authentication
Mechanism with MD5 (CRAM-MD5) is enabled, UW-IMAP does not properly enforce
all the required conditions for successful authentication, which could
allow remote attackers to authenticate as arbitrary users. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name
CAN-2005-0198 to this issue.

Users of imap are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
