Yes, I think so.  The cyrus-imapd package is weird; CVS devel "branch"
has an older version, while the built rawhide tree has the ".fc5"
tagged version.

Inspection of the code seems to indicate that 2.3.1 is indeed
vulnerable; the responsible code in imap/pop3d.c seems to be unchanged
between 2.3.1 and 2.3.2 (and 2.3.3, the latest version, so we'll have
to dig up a patch).
