No public exploits are known and the EPSS score is unavailable, suggesting a moderate likelihood of exploitation. The attack requires network access to the ManageSieve port (typically 4190) and the ability to send a crafted AUTHENTICATE command. Because the issue leads to a crash rather than unauthorized data access, the primary risk is availability disruption; confidentiality and integrity remain unchanged."}}}}, "created": "2026-03-27T09:45:46.805019+00:00", "title": "ManageSieve AUTHENTICATE Crash Causing Denial of Service in OX Dovecot Pro", "updated": "2026-03-27T09:45:46.805040+00:00", "vendors": []}
