"The remote Ubuntu 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS / 25.10 / 26.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-8365-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Dovecot incorrectly treated some variable expansion pipelines as safe in
    authentication filters. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform SQL or LDAP injection
    attacks. This issue only affected Ubuntu 25.10 and Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-27851)

    It was discovered that Dovecot incorrectly verified SCRAM TLS channel binding in certain base64 exchanges.
    A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain sensitive information in a machine-in-the-middle
    attack. (CVE-2026-33603)

    It was discovered that Dovecot incorrectly enforced Sieve script CPU limits. An attacker could possibly
    use this issue to cause Dovecot to use excessive resources, leading to a denial of service.
    (CVE-2026-40016)

    It was discovered that Dovecot incorrectly handled certain IMAP SETACL commands. An attacker could
    possibly use this issue to spam folders to other users. (CVE-2026-40020)

    It was discovered that Dovecot incorrectly handled excessive IMAP bracing. An attacker could possibly use
    this issue to cause Dovecot to use excessive resources, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2026-42006)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
