The remote AlmaLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALSA-2021:1887 advisory.
An issue was discovered in Dovecot before 2.3.13. By using IMAP IDLE, an authenticated attacker can trigger unhibernation via attacker-controlled parameters, leading to access to other users’ email messages (and path disclosure). (CVE-2020-24386)
Dovecot before 2.3.13 has Improper Input Validation in lda, lmtp, and imap, leading to an application crash via a crafted email message with certain choices for ten thousand MIME parts. (CVE-2020-25275)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
