DESCRIPTION
 cyrus-imapd[1] is an IMAP and POP3 mail server with several advanced
 features such as SASL authentication, server-side mail filtering,
 mailbox ACLs and others.
 
 Multiple buffer overflows[2] in Cyrus IMAPd before 2.2.11 may allow
 attackers to execute arbitrary code via an off-by-one error in the
 imapd annotate extension, an off-by-one error in cached header
 handling a stack-based buffer overflow in fetchnews, or a stack-based
 buffer overflow in imapd.


SOLUTION
 It is recommended that all cyrus-imapd users upgrade their packages.
 The service will be automatically restarted after the upgrade if
 needed.
