Dovecot release v2.3.7
by Aki Tuomi 12 Jul '19

12 Jul '19

Hi! We are pleased to release Dovecot release v2.3.7. Tarball is available at https://dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3.7.tar.gz https://dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3.7.tar.gz.sig Binary packages are available at https://repo.dovecot.org/ Changes ------- * fts-solr: Removed break-imap-search parameter + Added more events for the new statistics, see https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/list_of_events/ + mail-lua: Add IMAP metadata accessors, see https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/lua/ + Add event exporters that allow exporting raw events to log files and external systems, see https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/event_export/ + SNIPPET is now PREVIEW and size has been increased to 200 characters. + Add body option to fts_enforced. This triggers building FTS index only on body search, and an error using FTS index fails the search rather than reads through all the mails. - Submission/LMTP: Fixed crash when domain argument is invalid in a second EHLO/LHLO command. - Copying/moving mails using Maildir format loses IMAP keywords in the destination if the mail also has no system flags. - mail_attachment_detection_options=add-flags-on-save caused email body to be unnecessarily opened when FETCHing mail headers that were already cached. - mail attachment detection keywords not saved with maildir. - dovecot.index.cache may have grown excessively large in some situations. This happened especially when using autoexpunging with lazy_expunge folders. Also with mdbox format in general the cache file wasn't recreated as often as it should have. - Autoexpunged mails weren't immediately deleted from the disk. Instead, the deletion from disk happened the next time the folder was opened. This could have caused unnecessary delays if the opening was done by an interactive IMAP session. - Dovecot's TCP connections sometimes add extra 40ms latency due to not enabling TCP_NODELAY. HTTP and SMTP/LMTP connections weren't affected, but everything else was. This delay wasn't always visible - only in some situations with some message/packet sizes. - imapc: Fix various crash conditions - Dovecot builds were not always reproducible. - login-proxy: With shutdown_clients=no after config reload the existing connections could no longer be listed or kicked with doveadm. - "doveadm proxy kick" with -f parameter caused a crash in some situations. - Auth policy can cause segmentation fault crash during auth process shutdown if all auth requests have not been finished. - Fix various minor bugs leading into incorrect behaviour in mailbox list index handling. These rarely caused noticeable problems. - LDAP auth: Iteration accesses freed memory, possibly crashing auth-worker - local_name { .. } filter in dovecot.conf does not correctly support multiple names and wildcards were matched incorrectly. - replicator: dsync assert-crashes if it can't connect to remote TCP server. - config: Memory leak in config process when ssl_dh setting wasn't set and there was no ssl-parameters.dat file. This caused config process to die once in a while with "out of memory". --- Aki Tuomi Open-Xchange oy

Pigeonhole release 0.5.6

Hi! We are pleased to release Pigeonhole 0.5.6 for Dovecot 2.3.6. Tarball https://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3-pigeonhole-0.5.6.ta… https://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3-pigeonhole-0.5.6.ta… Binary packages can be found from https://repo.dovecot.org/ Changes + sieve: Redirect loop prevention is sometimes ineffective. Improve existing loop detection by also recognizing the X-Sieve-Redirected-From header in incoming messages and dropping redirect actions when it points to the sending account. This header is already added by the redirect action, so this improvement only adds an additional use of this header. - sieve: Prevent execution of implicit keep upon temporary failure occurring at runtime. --- Aki Tuomi Open-Xchange oy

CVE-2019-11499: Submission-login crashes when authentication is started over TLS secured channel and invalid authentication message is sent
by Aki Tuomi 30 Apr '19

30 Apr '19

Open-Xchange Security Advisory 2019-04-30 Product: Dovecot Vendor: OX Software GmbH Internal reference: DOV-3223 (Bug ID) Vulnerability type: CWE-617 Vulnerable version: 2.3.0 - 2.3.5.2 Vulnerable component: submission-login Report confidence: Confirmed Solution status: Fixed by Vendor Fixed version: 2.3.6 Vendor notification: 2019-03-11 Solution date: 2019-04-23 Public disclosure: 2019-04-30 CVE reference: CVE-2019-11499 CVSS: 7.5 (CVSS3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) Vulnerability Details: Submission-login crashes when authentication is started over TLS secured channel and invalid authentication message is sent.

by Aki Tuomi 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

Lets try again, put wrong changelog to the mail. Sorry about this. https://dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3.5.2.tar.gz https://dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3.5.2.tar.gz.sig Binary packages in https://repo.dovecot.org/ * CVE-2019-10691: Trying to login with 8bit username containing invalid UTF8 input causes auth process to crash if auth policy is enabled. This could be used rather easily to cause a DoS. Similar crash also happens during mail delivery when using invalid UTF8 in From or Subject header when OX push notification driver is used. --- Aki Tuomi Open-Xchange oy

CVE-2019-10691: JSON encoder in Dovecot 2.3 incorrecty assert-crashes when encountering invalid UTF-8 characters.
by Aki Tuomi 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

Dear subscribers, we're sharing our latest advisory with you and would like to thank everyone who contributed in finding and solving those vulnerabilities. Feel free to join our bug bounty programs (open-xchange, dovecot, powerdns) at HackerOne. You can find binary packages at https://repo.dovecot.org/ Yours sincerely, Aki Tuomi Open-Xchange Oy Open-Xchange Security Advisory 2019-04-18 Product: Dovecot Vendor: OX Software GmbH Internal reference: DOV-3173 (Bug ID) Vulnerability type: CWE-176 Vulnerable version: 2.3.0 - 2.3.5.1 Vulnerable component: json encoder Report confidence: Confirmed Researcher credits: cPanel L.L.C. Solution status: Fixed by Vendor Fixed version: 2.3.5.2 Vendor notification: 2019-04-02 Solution date: 2019-04-11 Public disclosure: 2019-04-18 CVE reference: CVE-2019-10691 CVSS: 7.5 (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) Vulnerability Details: JSON encoder in Dovecot 2.3 incorrecty assert-crashes when encountering invalid UTF-8 characters. This can be used to crash dovecot in two ways. Attacker can repeatedly crash Dovecot authentication process by logging in using invalid UTF-8 sequence in username. This requires that auth policy is enabled. Crash can also occur if OX push notification driver is enabled and an email is delivered with invalid UTF-8 sequence in From or Subject header. In 2.2, malformed UTF-8 sequences are forwarded "as-is", and thus do not cause problems in Dovecot itself. Target systems should be checked for possible problems in dealing with such sequences. See https://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/Policy for details on auth policy support. Risk: Determined attacker can prevent authentication process from staying up by keeping on attempting to log in with username containing invalid UTF-8 sequence. Steps to reproduce: Configure dovecot with auth_policy_server_url and auth_policy_hash_nonce set. Attempt to log in with username containing an invalid UTF-8 sequence Observe assert-crash in dovecot logs. Solution: Operators should update to the latest Patch Release or disable auth policy support.
