Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in spamGuard, where some potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors within several functions. These can be exploited to cause stack-based and heap-based buffer overflows by passing overly long, specially crafted strings.
Successful exploitation of some of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 1.6 and development versions before May 16th, 2004.
Solution:
Update to version 1.7-BETA:
