Description

Mercur v5.0 IMAP server is prone to a remotely exploitable
stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability. This issue is due
to a failure of the application to properly bounds check
user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed size memory buffer.
Credit to Tim Taylor for discover the vulnerability.
