There is no fixed version for Centos:6 php-imap.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php-imap package and not the php-imap package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

PHP5 before 5.4.4 allows passing invalid utf-8 strings via the xmlTextWriterWriteAttribute, which are then misparsed by libxml2. This results in memory leak into the resulting output.
