Title : MailEnable Remote Code Execution and Denial of Service Vulnerabilities
VUPEN ID : VUPEN/ADV-2008-0799
CVE ID : CVE-2008-1276 - CVE-2008-1277
Rated as : Moderate Risk 
Remotely Exploitable : Yes
Locally Exploitable : Yes
Release Date : 2008-03-10
|
Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in MailEnable Professional and Enterprise, which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service or take complete control of an affected system.
The first issue is caused by buffer overflow errors in the IMAP service (MEIMAPS.exe) when processing overly long arguments passed to the "FETCH", "EXAMINE" and "UNSUBSCRIBE" commands, which could be exploited by authenticated attackers to crash an affected application or execute arbitrary code.
The second vulnerability is caused by NULL pointer dereference errors in the IMAP service (MEIMAPS.exe) when processing the "SEARCH" and "APPEND" commands without any argument, which could be exploited by unauthenticated attackers to crash an affected application, creating a denial of service condition.
Affected Products
MailEnable Professional version 3.13 and prior
