Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.57048
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-288-4 (dovecot)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to dovecot
announced via advisory USN-288-4.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

USN-288-3 fixed a vulnerability in dovecot. Unfortunately the Ubuntu
6.06 update had a regression which caused authentication using a MySQL
database to not work any more. This update fixes this again.

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
dovecot-common 1.0.beta3-3ubuntu5.2
dovecot-imapd 1.0.beta3-3ubuntu5.2

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.
