Discussion

Ecartis Multiple Buffer Overrun Vulnerabilities

Multiple buffer overrun vulnerabilities have been reported for the Ecartis mailing list manager. Each issue appears to stem from a lack of bounds checking while copying e-mail message contents into internal memory buffers. As a result, an attacker may be capable of constructing a malicious e-mail message that could trigger the corruption of Ecartis memory; potentially allowing for the execution of arbitrary code. It should be noted that due to the nature of e-mail protocols, successfuly exploiting this issue may be difficult due to a restriced character set.
