Descriptions

Stack-based buffer overflow in the IMAP daemon (IMAPD) in Novell NetMail before 3.52e FTF2 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors involving the APPEND command.

Desbordamiento de búfer basado en pila en el demonio IMAP (IMAPD) de Novell NetMail anterior a 3.52e FTF2 permite a atacantes remotos autenticados ejecutar código de su elección mediante vectores no especificados que implican el parámetro APPEND.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Novell NetMail. Successful exploitation requires the attacker to successfully authenticate to the affected service.
The specific flaw exists in the NetMail IMAP server's handling of the APPEND command. A lack of bounds checking on a specific parameter to this command can lead to a stack-based buffer overflow. This vulnerability can be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
