Description:
Jaguar has reported a vulnerability in log2mail, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a format string error within the "printlog()" function when logging information. This can be exploited by people, who are able to make an application log a specially crafted message containing format specifiers to a logfile monitored by log2mail.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of log2mail.
