Dovecot 1.2.x before 1.2.15 and 2.0.x before 2.0.beta2 grants the admin
permission to the owner of each mailbox in a non-public namespace, which
might allow remote authenticated users to bypass intended access
restrictions by changing the ACL of a mailbox, as demonstrated by a
symlinked shared mailbox.

sbeattie | from upstream email at http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2010-October/053452.html it sounds like problem was introduced in 1.2.8, so earlier may not be vulnerable. |
