Descriptions

Clearswift MAILsweeper for SMTP before 4.3.20 and MAILsweeper for Exchange before 4.3.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via (1) non-ASCII characters in a reverse DNS lookup result from a Received header, which leads to a Receiver service stop, and (2) unspecified vectors involving malformed messages, which causes "unpredictable behavior" that prevents the Security service from processing more messages.

Clearswift MAILsweeper para SMTP anterior a v4.3.20 y MAILsweeper para Exchange anterior a v4.3.20 permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio a través de (1) caracteres "no-ASCII" en un resultado de búsqueda de DNS inversa desde una cabecera Received, que lleva a una parada del servicio Receiver, y (2) vectores sin especificar que tienen que ver con mensajes mal formados que provocan un "comportamiento impredecible" que impide al servicio Security procesar más mensajes
