Several vulnerabilities have been
discovered in getmail4, a mail retriever with support for POP3, IMAP4 and SDPS,
that could allow man-in-the-middle attacks.

CVE-2014-7273
The IMAP-over-SSL implementation in getmail 4.0.0 through 4.43.0
does not verify X.509 certificates from SSL servers, which allows
man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof IMAP servers and obtain
sensitive information via a crafted certificate.

CVE-2014-7274
The IMAP-over-SSL implementation in getmail 4.44.0 does not verify
that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject
