Summary
Updated fetchmail packages fix security vulnerability
Details

Updated fetchmail packages fix security vulnerability:

report_vbuild in report.c in Fetchmail before 6.4.20 sometimes omits initialization of the vsnprintf va_list argument, which might allow mail servers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via long error messages (CVE-2021-36386).
