Internet Anywhere Mail Server is vulnerable to denial of service
attacks
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
SUMMARY
<http://www.tnsoft.com/mailserver/> The Internet Anywhere Mail Server is
a full featured Internet standards compliant, electronic mail server. This
program contains multiple vulnerabilities that cause the server to be
vulnerable to numerous types of attacks.
DETAILS
Internet Anywhere Mail Server version 2.3.1, build 10020, contains
numerous vulnerabilities. They are probably present in earlier versions
too:
1) If you send the POP3 server the commands "user", "retr", "list" or
"uidl" with arguments that are about 200 characters long, the server
crashes.
2) If you send the POP3 server the commands "list a", "top a a", or "uidl
a" (that is, letters where there should be numbers), the server crashes.
3) If you send the SMTP server the command "vrfy" with an argument that is
about 250 characters long, the server crashes.
4) Another problem is that the server stores the account passwords in
plaintext in the file msgboxes.dbf.
Points 1-3 are fixed in the brand new version 3.1 which is now available
at: <http://www.tnsoft.com/> http://www.tnsoft.com/, but point 4 will not
be fixed until a future version - all this according to True North
Software.
The following exploit code, exploits the mentioned above vulnerabilities,
and enables administrators to test their server for the mentioned
vulnerability:

//
// This exploit code starts the Command Prompt on a remote computer
// running Internet Anywhere Mail Server version 2.3.1, build 10020.
// However, it is very dependent on different DLL versions installed
// on the server computer. This code exploits a vrfy buffer overflow
// in the SMTP part of the mail server.
