Hi,
* Josh Bressers <bressers () redhat com> [2008-10-29 19:55]:
I'm not sure if this is a Red Hat specific issue, but I figured I'd mention it here:
It seems dovecot can have an SSL key file password disclosure issue:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=436287

Basically, if your dovecot.conf file is world readable and you have your SSL key
password in it, anyone can see it.

Looks like this is CVE-2008-4870.

Cheers
Nico
