Description:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered some vulnerabilities in MailEnable, which can be exploited by malicious people and malicious users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Boundary errors in the IMAP service (MEIMAPS.EXE) when handling arguments passed to the FETCH, EXAMINE, and UNSUBSCRIBE commands can be exploited to cause buffer overflows via overly long arguments.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

2) Errors in the IMAP service when handling the SEARCH and APPEND commands can be exploited to cause the service to crash.

The vulnerabilities affect the following versions:
* MailEnable Standard versions prior to 1.986
* MailEnable Professional versions prior to 1.87, 2.52, and 3.14
* MailEnable Enterprise versions prior to 1.44, 2.52, and 3.14

Solution:
Update to the latest versions or re-apply hotfix ME-10040 (updated by the vendor).
