  - CVE-2020-12100
    Receiving mail with deeply nested MIME parts leads to
    resource exhaustion as Dovecot attempts to parse it.

  - CVE-2020-12673
    Dovecot's NTLM implementation does not correctly check
    message buffer size, which leads to a crash when reading
    past allocation.

  - CVE-2020-12674
    Dovecot's RPA mechanism implementation accepts
    zero-length message, which leads to assert-crash later
    on.");
