| Title: | DSA-1516-1 dovecot - privilege escalation | ||
| Description: | Prior to this update, the default configuration for Dovecot used by Debian runs the server daemons with group mail privileges. This means that users with write access to their mail directory on the server (for example, through an SSH login) could read and also delete via a symbolic link mailboxes owned by other users for which they do not have direct access (<a href="http://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2008-1199">CVE-2008-1199</a>). In addition, an internal interpretation conflict in password handling has been addressed proactively, even though it is not known to be exploitable (<a href="http://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2008-1218">CVE-2008-1218</a>). | ||
