Update Information:
CVE-2020-12100: Parsing mails with a large number of MIME parts could
have resulted in excessive CPU usage or a crash due to running out of
stack memory. CVE-2020-12673: Dovecot's NTLM implementation does not
correctly check message buffer size, which leads to reading past
allocation which can lead to crash. CVE-2020-10967: lmtp/submission:
Issuing the RCPT command with an address that has the empty quoted string
as local-part causes the lmtp service to crash. CVE-2020-12674:
Dovecot's RPA mechanism implementation accepts zero-length message, which
leads to assert-crash later on.
