Severity: moderate

Description:

Using Jazzer fuzzer, we identified that an IMAP user can craft IMAP LIST 
commands to orchestrate a Denial Of Service using a vulnerable Regular 
expression.  This affected Apache James prior to 3.6.1

This issue is being tracked as JAMES-3635

Mitigation:

We recommend upgrading to Apache James 3.6.1 or higher , which enforce the use 
of RE2J regular expression engine to execute regex in linear time without 
back-tracking.
