Updated dovecot (2.3):
Updated dovecot to 2.3.6:
CVE-2019-11494: Submission-login crashed with signal 11 due to null pointer access when authentication was aborted by disconnecting
CVE-2019-11499: Submission-login crashed when authentication was started over TLS secured channel and invalid authentication message was sent
auth: Support password grant with passdb oauth2
- Use system default CAs for outbound TLS connections
- Simplify array handling with new helper macros
fts_solr: Enable configuring batch_size and soft_commit features
lmtp/submission: Fixed various bugs in XCLIENT handling, including a hang when XCLIENT commands were sent infinitely to the remote server
- lmtp/submission: Forwarded multi-line replies were erroneously sent as two replies to the client
lib-smtp: client: Message was not guaranteed to contain CRLF consistently when CHUNKING was used
fts_solr: Plugin was no longer compatible with Solr 7
Make it possible to disable certificate checking without setting ssl_client_ca_* settings
pop3c: SSL support was broken
- mysql: Closing connection twice lead to crash on some systems
- auth: Multiple oauth2 passdbs crashed auth process on deinit
- HTTP client connection errors infrequently triggered a segmentation fault when the connection was idle and not used for a particular client instance
Updated pigeonhole to 0.5.6:
sieve: Redirect loop prevention is sometimes ineffective; improve existing loop detection by also recognizing the X-Sieve-Redirected-From header in incoming messages and dropping redirect actions when it points to the sending account (this header is already added by the redirect action, so this improvement only adds an additional use of this header)
- sieve: Prevent execution of implicit keep upon temporary failure occurring at runtime

Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.88 in Rawhide:
- Summary of major changes since version 1.85
Mike McCauley has stepped down as maintainer: the new maintainers are Chris Novakovic, Heikki Vatiainen and Tuure Vartiainen
The source code has moved from the now-defunct Debian Subversion server (alioth.debian.org) to GitHub
Net-SSLeay is provided under the terms of the Artistic License 2.0; this has been the case since version 1.66, but references to other licenses remained in the source code, causing ambiguity
Perl 5.8.1 or newer is now required to use Net-SSLeay; this has already been the case for some time in practice, as the test suite hasn't fully passed on Perl 5.6 for several years
- Much-improved compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1, and improved support for TLS 1.3
Fixed a long-standing bug in cb_data_advanced_put() that caused memory leaks when callbacks were frequently added and removed
- Support in the test suite for "hardened" OpenSSL configurations that set a default security level of 2 or higher (e.g., in the OpenSSL packages that ship with recent versions of Debian, Fedora and Ubuntu)
Updated perl-YAML to 1.29 in Rawhide:
Fix regex for alias to match the one for anchors (GH#214)

Updated perl-Devel-StackTrace to 2.04:
Add a partial workaround for "Bizarre copy" errors (GH#11) that come when attempting to look at arguments in the call stack; this is only a partial fix (GH#21) as there are cases that can lead to a SEGV - ultimately, this needs to be fixed in the Perl core (Perl RT#131046)

Until 5.29.10 this construction failed to parse because it did not interpolate, but PPIx::Regexp blithely ignored this detail
