Friday 16th January 2026

Local Packages

• Updated dovecot to 2.4.2:

  • CVE-2025-30189: passdb oauth2 (not oauth2 mechanism), passdb passwd, passdb bsdauth, and userdb passwd drivers would cause users to be cached with same cache key when auth cache was enabled

  • auth: Remove proxy_always field

  • config: Change settings history parsing to use python3

  • doveadm: Print table formatter - print empty values as "-"

  • imapc: Propagate remote error codes properly

  • lda: Default mail_home=$HOME environment if not using userdb lookup

  • lib-dcrypt: Salt for new version 2 keys has been increased to 16 bytes

  • lib-dregex: Add libpcre2 based regular expression support to Dovecot; if the library is missing, disable all regular expressions (this adds libpcre2-32 as build dependency)

  • lib-oauth2: jwt - Allow nbf and iat to point 1 second into future

  • lib: Replace libicu with our own unicode library; removes libicu as build dependency

  • login-common: If proxying fails due to remote having invalid SSL cert, don't reconnect

  • auth: Add ssl_client_cert_fp and ssl_client_cert_pubkey_fp fields, see https://doc.dovecot.org/latest/core/summaries/settings.html#ssl_peer_certificate_fingerprint_hash for more information

  • config: Add support for $SET:filter/path/setting

  • config: Improve @group includes to work with overwriting their settings

  • doveadm kick: Add support for kicking multiple usernames

  • doveadm mailbox status: Add support for deleted status item

  • imap, imap-client: Add experimental partial IMAP4rev2 support

  • lib-oauth2, oauth2: Add oauth2_token_expire_grace setting

  • lmtp: lmtp-client - Support command pipelining

  • login-common: Support local/remote blocks better

  • master: accept() unix/inet connections before creating child process to handle it; this reduces timeouts when child processes are slow to spawn themselves

  • SMTPUTF8 was accepted even when it wasn't enabled

  • auth, *-login: Direct logging with -L parameter was not working

  • auth: Crash occured when OAUTH token validation failed with oauth2_use_worker_with_mech=yes

  • auth: Invalid field handling crashes were fixed

  • auth: ldap - Potential crash could happen at deinit

  • auth: mech-gssapi - Server sending empty initial response would cause errors

  • auth: mech-winbind - GSS-SPNEGO mechanism was erroneously marked as not accepting NUL

  • config: Multiple issues with $SET handling have been fixed

  • configure: Building without LDAP didn't work

  • doveadm: If source user didn't exist, a crash would occur

  • imap, pop3, submission, imap-urlauth: USER environment usage was broken when running standalone

  • imap-hibernate: Statistics would get truncated on unhibernation

  • imap: "SEARCH MIMEPART FILENAME ENDS" command could have accessed memory outside allocated buffer, resulting in a crash

  • imapc: Fetching partial headers would cause other cached headers to be cached empty, breaking e.g. imap envelope responses when caching to disk

  • imapc: Shared namespace's INBOX mailbox was not always uppercased

  • imapc: imapc_features=guid-forced GUID generation was not working correctly

  • lda: USER environment was not accepted if -d hasn't been specified

  • lib-http: http-url - Significant path percent encoding through parse and create was not preserved; this is mainly important for Dovecot's lua bindings for lib-http

  • lib-settings: Crash would occur when using %variables in SET_FILE type settings

  • lib-storage: Attachment flags were attempted to be added for readonly mailboxes with mail_attachment_flags=add-flags

  • lib-storage: Root directory for unusable shared namespaces was unnecessarily attempted to be created

  • lib: Crash would occur when config was reloaded and logging to syslog

  • login-common: Crash might have occured when login proxy was destroyed
