Descriptions

camel/providers/imapx/camel-imapx-server.c in the IMAPx component in GNOME evolution-data-server before 3.21.2 proceeds with cleartext data containing a password if the client wishes to use STARTTLS but the server will not use STARTTLS, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network. The server code was intended to report an error and not proceed, but the code was written incorrectly.

camel/providers/imapx/camel-imapx-server.c en el componente IMAPx en GNOME evolution-data-server en versiones anteriores a la 3.21.2 continúa con datos en texto claro que contienen una contraseña si el cliente desea emplear STARTTLS, pero el servidor no lo utiliza. Esto facilita que los atacantes remotos obtengan información sensible rastreando la red. El código del servidor debería reportar un error y no continuar, pero el código se escribió erróneamente.
