CVE-2017-14461

     Aleksandar Nikolic of Cisco Talos and 'flxflndy' discovered that
     Dovecot does not properly parse invalid email addresses, which may
     cause a crash or leak memory contents to an attacker.

CVE-2017-15130

     It was discovered that TLS SNI config lookups may lead to excessive
     memory usage, causing imap-login/pop3-login VSZ limit to be reached
     and the process restarted, resulting in a denial of service. Only
     Dovecot configurations containing local_name { } or local { }
     configuration blocks are affected.

     It was discovered that Dovecot contains a memory leak flaw in the
     login process on aborted SASL authentication.


For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
1:2.1.7-7+deb7u2.
