tag_summary = "The remote host is running a version of cyrus-imsp (Internet Message Support
Protocol) which has a buffer overflow bug.

An attacker could exploit this bug to execute arbitrary code on this system
with the privileges of the root user.

The overflow occurs when the user issues a too long argument as his name, 
causing an overflow in the abook_dbname function command.";

tag_solution = "Upgrade cyrus-imsp server to version version 1.6a4 or 1.7a";
