Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and overwrite or read sensitive information.
1) When installing e-mail scanners, it is possible to select an option that allows the Control Center to connect from any computer. If this option is selected, it is possible to impersonate the Control Center and cause the Brightmail AntiSpam service to stop responding by sending invalid posts.
2) Input passed in "DATABLOB-GET" and "DATABLOB-SAVE" requests is not properly sanitised. This can be exploited to overwrite or read some files on the system in combination with vulnerability #1.
