NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dovecot package and not the dovecot package as distributed by Ubuntu.

In Dovecot before 2.3.10.1, a crafted SMTP/LMTP message triggers an unauthenticated use-after-free bug in submission-login, submission, or lmtp, and can lead to a crash under circumstances involving many newlines after a command.
