- From first advisory: |

"Cyrus' Sieve implementation contains a couple of classic string based |

"Cyrus IMAP server has a a remotely exploitable pre-login buffer |

both had it, so apparently all versions are affected." |

| 35 |
net-mail/cyrus-imapd-2.1.9-r1 update their systems as follows: |

|
| 37 |
emerge rsync |
