Discussion
Novell NetMail Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities
Multiple remote vulnerabilities reportedly affect Novell NetMail. These vulnerabilities are due to multiple issues including failure to verify string length before copying them into static process buffers, failure to handle malformed input, and various design errors.
The first issue reported is a buffer overflow vulnerability in the IMAP functionality of the affected application. The second issue is a failure of the application to properly integrate with Symantec antivirus software. Finally a number of issues reported may facilitate denial of service attacks, although these are not confirmed.
An attacker may leverage these issues to execute arbitrary code on the affected computer, facilitating system compromise, anti-virus screening bypass, facilitating a false sense of security, and potentially carry out denial of service attacks.
