"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2022:0115 advisory.
Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:
CVE-2019-11500:
In Dovecot before 2.2.36.4 and 2.3.x before 2.3.7.2 (and Pigeonhole before 0.5.7.2), protocol processing
can fail for quoted strings. This occurs because '\0' characters are mishandled, and can lead to out-of-
bounds writes and remote code execution.
CVE-2019-3814:
It was discovered that Dovecot before versions 2.2.36.1 and 2.3.4.1 incorrectly handled client
certificates. A remote attacker in possession of a valid certificate with an empty username field could
possibly use this issue to impersonate other users.
CVE-2020-10957:
In Dovecot before 2.3.10.1, unauthenticated sending of malformed parameters to a NOOP command causes a
NULL Pointer Dereference and crash in submission-login, submission, or lmtp.
CVE-2020-10958:
In Dovecot before 2.3.10.1, a crafted SMTP/LMTP message triggers an unauthenticated use-after-free bug in
submission-login, submission, or lmtp, and can lead to a crash under circumstances involving many newlines
after a command.
CVE-2020-10967:
In Dovecot before 2.3.10.1, remote unauthenticated attackers can crash the lmtp or submission process by
sending mail with an empty localpart.
CVE-2020-12100:
In Dovecot before 2.3.11.3, uncontrolled recursion in submission, lmtp, and lda allows remote attackers to
cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a crafted e-mail message with deeply nested MIME
parts.
CVE-2020-12673:
In Dovecot before 2.3.11.3, sending a specially formatted NTLM request will crash the auth service because
of an out-of-bounds read.
CVE-2020-12674:
In Dovecot before 2.3.11.3, sending a specially formatted RPA request will crash the auth service because
a length of zero is mishandled.
CVE-2020-24386:
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-2020-25275:
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.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
