Discussion

Cyrus IMAPD Multiple Remote Unspecified Vulnerabilities

Cyrus IMAPD is reported prone to multiple remote unspecified buffer overflow vulnerabilities. The following issues are reported:

It is reported that the first issue exists in the 'IMAPMAGICPLUS' functionality provided by Cyrus IMAPD. This vulnerability exists prior to authentication, and is therefore reportedly exploitable by anonymous remote attackers.

Additionally a buffer overflow vulnerability is reported to exist in the 'mysasl_canon_user' Cyrus IMAPD function.

These vulnerabilities reportedly may allow remote, attacker-supplied machine code to be executed in the context of the affected server process.
