Severity: critical
Tags: security
from http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot-news/2009-November/000143.html
This is mainly to fix the 0777 base_dir creation issue, which could be
considered a security hole, exploitable by local users. An attacker
could for example replace Dovecot's auth socket and log in as other
users. Gaining root privileges isn't possible though.
This affects only v1.2 users, v1.1 and older versions were creating the
directory with 0755 permission.

.
[ Marco Nenciarini ]
* New upstream release. (Closes: #557601)
* Added myself to uploaders.
* Switched to the new source format "3.0 (quilt)":
- removed dpatch from build-depends
- removed debian/README.source because now we use only standard
dpkg features
- regenerated all patches
* Prepared to switch to multi-origin source:
- recreated dovecot-libsieve.patch and dovecot-managesieve-dist.patch
starting from the upstream tarball
- removed all autotools related build-depends and build-conflict
- renamed dovecot-libsieve and dovecot-managesieve directories
to libsieve and managesieve.
* debian/rules: Moved the configuration of libsieve and managesieve from
the build phase to the configuration phase
.
[ Jaldhar H. Vyas ]
* Added dovecot-dbg package with debugging symbols. Thanks Stephan Bosch.
(Closes: #554710)
* Fixed some stray libexec'isms in the default configuration.
