Fixes various CVEs:
https://dovecot.org/mailman3/archives/list/dovecot-news@dovecot.org/thread/I4KFFV4IKP6M5MS67SWYHKDSDMSNILQG/

* CVE-2025-59028: Invalid base64 authentication can cause DoS for other
  logins.
* CVE-2025-59031: decode2text.sh OOXML extraction may follow symlinks
  and read unintended files during indexing. Fixed by dropping the script.
* CVE-2026-24031: SQL injection possible if auth_username_chars is
  configured empty. Fixed escaping to always happen. v2.4 regression.
* CVE-2026-27859: Excessive RFC 2231 MIME parameters in email would cause
  excessive CPU usage. Fixed by limiting number of parameters to process.
* CVE-2026-27860: LDAP query injection possible if auth_username_chars
  is configured empty. Fixed escaping to always happen. v2.4 regression.
* CVE-2026-27857: Sending excessive parenthesis causes imap-login to use
  excessive memory.
* CVE-2026-27856: Doveadm credentials were not checked using timing-safe
  checking function.
* CVE-2026-27855: OTP driver vulnerable to replay attack.
* CVE-2026-27858: managesieve-login can allocate large amount of memory
  during authentication.
* CVE-2025-59032: ManageSieve panic occurs with sieve-connect as a client.

2.4.4:
https://dovecot.org/mailman3/archives/list/dovecot-news@dovecot.org/thread/YW7GVOH3VVLNAYW2C4TEBTGJW52J7F6H/

Fixes various CVEs:
https://dovecot.org/mailman3/archives/list/dovecot-news@dovecot.org/thread/YQYBB3NJPNFFJ4SHDU7PLXLRRGHBJKSK/

* CVE-2026-27851: lib-var-expand: Safe filter marks all following pipelines safe.
* CVE-2026-33603: auth: CRAM-SHA-*-PLUS channel binding could be faked.
  MITM attacker with a certificate trusted by the client could have
  bypassed the requirement for channel binding.
* CVE-2026-40020: IMAP folders can be shared-spammed to everyone.
* CVE-2026-42006: An attacker can cause uncontrolled memory usage with
  excessive bracing over IMAP. The fix in CVE-2026-27857 was incomplete.
* CVE-2026-40016: sieve :contains and :matches operators could have been
  using excessive amount of CPU. Limit the CPU to sieve_max_cpu_time.

2.4.5:
https://dovecot.org/mailman3/archives/list/dovecot-news@dovecot.org/thread/D7FJQODYCY23BG3FWUZXCJRCLCPT7RZT/

Fixes various CVEs:
https://dovecot.org/mailman3/archives/list/dovecot-news@dovecot.org/thread/WT4USR35HN43TGQGVDXPDAMCUTGLVMET/

* CVE-2026-27852: Messages with a huge number of From/To/Cc/etc email addresses
  could result in excessive memory usage.
* CVE-2026-33263: Submission: Login service crashes with panic once
  mail_max_userip_connections limit is reached.
* CVE-2026-33604: The SMTP outbound dot-stuffing mechanism does not properly
  escape dots following a bare \r in message bodies, potentially allowing
  spoofed emails via malicious end-of-DATA injection.
* CVE-2026-33606: Mail content stored by a user can be crafted so that it is
  interpreted as dsync protocol commands when an administrator later runs dsync
  with the stream protocol, for example during a migration.
* CVE-2026-33607: IMAP LIST command could be used to cause excessive CPU usage.
* CVE-2026-40014: IMAP THREAD command could have used excessive amount of CPU
  processing a single email with a massive number of Message-IDs in References
  header.
* CVE-2026-40015: Invalid IMAP command sent to imap-hibernate process might
  crash it.
* CVE-2026-40017: IMAP THREAD command could have used excessive amount of CPU
  processing emails with a large number of specially crafted Message-IDs in
  References header. The fix requires a new dovecot.index.thread file format,
  which is enabled only after setting dovecot_storage_version or newer. This
  rebuilds the index, so it will cause some extra CPU usage and extra
  metacache disk IO usage. It shouldn't cause (much) extra object storage IO,
  because all the fields should be coming from dovecot.index.cache.
* CVE-2026-40203: When IMAP COMPRESS=DEFLATE was enabled, an attacker
  could send mails into a victim's mailbox and observe network traffic to
  determine whether a secret message matched a known string by comparing
  compressed response sizes (a CRIME-style attack). The fix resets the
  compression dictionary after each IMAP command, preventing information from
  leaking between commands.
* CVE-2026-40205: If multiple OAUTH scopes were required, then
  this could have been only partially enforced with certain
  configurations.
* CVE-2026-4200: XCLIENT FORWARD allows to forward key only passdb
  fields without the "forward_" prefix which allows connections from
  trusted networks to set nopasswd field which allows to skip the
  authentication.
* CVE-2026-42391: Pre-login IMAP ID command could have used excessive
  amount of memory, causing the process to become killed and disconnecting
  all the other IMAP connections being proxied by the process. Or
  alternatively it could have caused excessive CPU usage, slowing down
  all the other IMAP connections being proxied by the process.
* CVE-2026-42392: If URLAUTH is enabled, sending an invalid IMAP URLFETCH
  can result in an untagged NO response containing uninitialized memory,
  potentially leaking sensitive data.
* CVE-2026-42393: Doveadm password length or API key length could still
  be determined via timing based attacks.
* CVE-2026-42395: XCLIENT FORWARD command from login_trusted_networks
  could have been used to cause login processes to crash.
* CVE-2026-52681: Sieve resource usage (sieve_max_cpu_time) was tracked
  in the active Sieve binary. Switching to a different active binary
  could have been used to reset (bypass) the resource usage.
* CVE-2026-52687: Using IMAP COMPRESS ZSTD command can cause excessive
  memory usage in imap-login process, possibly making it reach vsz_limit
  and kill all the connections being served by the process. Fixed by
  disabling COMPRESS command with all other compression algorithms than
  the standard DEFLATE.
* CVE-2026-73208: In oauth2, scope/aud checking was done with JWT tokens.
  Now it requires all scopes.
* CVE-2026-73209: Sending IMAP COMPRESS package containing zero-length
  frames crashes imap or imap-login process.
* CVE-2026-33605: managesieve-login: Pre-auth crash. An unauthenticated attacker
  can crash the ManageSieve login process by sending a small malformed command
  before authenticating.
* CVE-2026-40019: v2.4.3 regression: managesieve-login pre-auth infinite loop.
  An unauthenticated attacker can send a truncated quoted argument to the
  ManageSieve login process, which makes it spin in an infinite loop consuming CPU.
* CVE-2026-42007: sieve-editheader: An attacker that has valid credentials can
  use a Sieve script with the editheader extension to trigger a use-after-free
  in the mail editing code, and to write memory contents beyond the intended
  buffer in the delivered mail.

Removed patches which are included in this release.

Added patch 0001 to revert upstream commit which breaks the build:

  CCLD     test-var-expand-crypt
output/per-package/dovecot/host/opt/ext-toolchain/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi/9.3.0/../../../../arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi/bin/ld:
 attempted static link of dynamic object `./.libs/var_expand_crypt.so'

Select libiconv when needed, upstream removed the optional support in
verion 2.4.2:
8dd2ec82f6

Added optional dependency to pcre2 available since version 2.4.2:
38fc1545fe
which needs BR2_PACKAGE_PCRE2_32:
https://github.com/dovecot/core/blob/2.4.5/m4/want_pcre.m4#L9

Ported path fixup for Makefile from dovecot to dovecot-pigeonhole to fix
build error:

make[6]: *** No rule to make target
 '/usr/libexec/dovecot/settings-history.py', needed by
 'settings-history-pigeonhole.h'.  Stop.

Updated license hashes due to upstream commits:
8de4423b61
2a5809c115
8020ac1380

Added optional support for libkrb5, openldap, postgresql and zstd.

Removed optional support for xz due to its upstream removal:
3e44364d4a

Removed configure option --with-ssl (openssl is already a dependency):
6b0b7141a8

Removed configure options for zlib (zlib is already a dependency):
d666521754

Renamed RPCGEN value in _CONF_ENV to silence configure warning:
./configure: line 34595: __disable_RPCGEN_rquota: command not found

Removed various _CONF_ENV variables due to their upstream removal:

i_cv_inotify_works:
https://github.com/dovecot/core/pull/107#issuecomment-560056967

i_cv_signed_size_t:
52d322449d

i_cv_signed_time_t:

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at https://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
