Vulnerability Details:
Dovecot's lib-smtp is vulnerable to STARTTLS command injection. If more commands are pipelined as plaintext after STARTTLS, those commands are run inside the TLS session.
Risk:
A MiTM attacker can inject preamble commands to be executed prior to user's commands, these can be used to redirect the actual mail and other user commands to attacker controlled address.
Proof of concept script exists.
Solution:
Upgrade to fixed version, or disable STARTTLS support.
