This test, Dovecot Sieve Plugin Multiple Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities was a 
finding on my server.
It stated that the following versions were affected:
Dovecot versions 1.0 before 1.0.4 and 1.1 before 1.1.7
It states the solution to:Apply the patch or upgrade to Dovecot version 1.1.4 
or 1.1.7 http://www.dovecot.org/download.html 
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-sieve-1.1/rev/049f22520628 
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-sieve-1.1/rev/4577c4e1130d
The Dovecot Version Detection check identified the version as:Dovecot version 1 
running at location /usr/libexec/dovecotstdin:  was detected on the hostVersion 
used: $Revision: 1040 $
However, running the following command on the server returns the 
following:root@bh01 [~]# dovecot --version2.2.16
2.2.16 is drastically different than the 1040 or 1.0.4 identified.
1.  Should the tests be altered to state Dovecot Sieve Plugin in place of 
Dovecot Version?
2.  I am also confused as the guidance says apply the patch OR upgrade to 
Dovecot version 1.1.4 or 1.1.7.  My Dovecot Version is 2.2.16, so why would 
this check fail?
