NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cyrus-imapd package and not the cyrus-imapd package as distributed by Debian.

In the mboxlist_do_find function in imap/mboxlist.c in Cyrus IMAP before 3.0.4, an off-by-one error in prefix calculation for the LIST command caused use of uninitialized memory, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a 'LIST "" "Other Users"' command.
