Mandrake Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:242 (dovecot) addresses multiple stack-based buffer overflows in Dovecot 1.0 before 1.0.4 and 1.1 before 1.1.7, allowing context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted SIEVE script, as demonstrated by forwarding an email message to a large number of recipients
