Discussion

ArGoSoft Mail Server Multiple Directory Traversal Vulnerabilities

ArGoSoft Mail Server is reported prone to multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities. These issues result from insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data and may allow remote attackers to view, replace and delete arbitrary files, folders, and users' email on a vulnerable computer running the server.

ArGoSoft Mail Server 1.8.7.3 is reported vulnerable to these issues. It is possible that prior versions are affected as well.

New information suggests these issues still affect ArGoSoft Mail Server Pro version 1.8.7.6.
