Aki Tuomi reports:

    Vulnerability Details: IMAP and ManageSieve protocol parsers do not
    properly handle NUL byte when scanning data in quoted strings, leading to
    out of bounds heap memory writes. Risk: This vulnerability allows for
    out-of-bounds writes to objects stored on the heap up to 8096 bytes in
    pre-login phase, and 65536 bytes post-login phase, allowing sufficiently
    skilled attacker to perform complicated attacks that can lead to leaking
    private information or remote code execution. Abuse of this bug is very
    difficult to observe, as it does not necessarily cause a crash. Attempts to
    abuse this bug are not directly evident from logs.
