Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in MailEnable, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and compromise a vulnerable system.
1) A boundary error in the handling of the "AUTHENTICATE" command in the IMAP service can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by supplying an overly long argument (more than 1016 bytes).
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
2) An error in the handling of the "EHLO" command in the SMTP service can be exploited to crash a vulnerable service by supplying an overly long argument in unicode.
The vulnerabilities have been reported in MailEnable Enterprise version 1.04, and in MailEnable Professional version 1.54 and prior.
