exhaustion as Dovecot attempts to parse it.
CVE-2020-12673: Dovecot's NTLM implementation does not correctly check message
buffer size, which leads to reading past allocation which can lead to crash.
CVE-2020-12674: Dovecot's RPA mechanism implementation accepts zero-length
message, which leads to assert-crash later on.
