It was discovered that the ACL plugin in Dovecot would incorrectly merge ACLs in certain circumstances. A remote authenticated user could possibly bypass intended access restrictions and gain access to mailboxes. It was discovered that the ACL plugin in Dovecot would incorrectly grant the admin permission to owners of certain mailboxes. A remote authenticated user could possibly bypass intended access restrictions and gain access to mailboxes.
