>Description:

There is a bug in the dovecot-managesieve that allows virtual users
to get read/write access to the other's sieve files in some curcumstances:
  http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2008-November/035259.html

>How-To-Repeat:

Look at http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2008-November/035259.html

PR ports/129028 mentions the security vulnerability (that was eliminated
by that PR), but does not add a new VuXML entry.

>Fix:

The following VuXML entry should be evaluated and added:

  <vuln vid="unknown">

I had marked port versions '>=0.11.0<0.11.1' to be affected too, because
these upstream versions are affected.  There are no such port versions
in the official FreeBSD ports tree.
