Synopsis

The remote host is missing a vendor-supplied security patch

Description

The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory SUSE-SA:2004:043 (cyrus-imapd).

Stefan Esser reported various bugs within the Cyrus IMAP Server.
These include buffer overflows and out-of-bounds memory access which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands as root. The bugs occur in the pre-authentication phase, therefore an update is strongly recommended.
