Descriptions

Postfix 1.1.11 and earlier allows remote attackers to use Postfix to conduct "bounce scans" or DDos attacks of other hosts via an email address to the local host containing the target IP address and service name followed by a "!" string, which causes Postfix to attempt to use SMTP to communicate with the target on the associated port.

Postfix 1.1.11 y anteriores permite a atacantes remotos usar Postfix para llevar a cabo "escaneos de rebote" o ataques de denegación de servicio distribuidos (DDoS) contra otras máquinas mediante una dirección de correo electrónico a la máquina local que contenga la dirección IP objetivo y el nombre del servicio seguido de una cadena "!", lo que hace que Postfix intente usar SMTP para comunicarse con el objetivo en el puerto asociado.
