+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker, who could be an authenticated user or an admin of a
+ peering news server, could exploit these vulnerabilities to execute
+ arbitrary code with the rights of the user running the Cyrus IMAP
+ Server.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>

+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-mail/cyrus-imapd-2.2.12"</code>
