The remote host is missing an update for the 'cyrus-imapd' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. It is a high-performance mail server with IMAP, POP3, NNTP, and Sieve support. A buffer overflow flaw was found in the cyrus-imapd NNTP server, nntpd, allowing a remote user to crash the nntpd child process or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the cyrus user

  Red Hat would like to thank Greg Banks for reporting this issue.

  Users of cyrus-imapd are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,

  the update, cyrus-imapd will be restarted automatically.");
