Product: MagicSpam - Plesk Extension 2.0.13-1


Exploitation Technique:
===
Remote


Severity Level:
===
Low


Technical Details & Description:

An insecure file permission access vulnerability has been discovered in the 
MagicSpam 2.0.13-1 plesk extension.
The vulnerability allows an attacker to access sensitive information like 
emails without permission or authentication.


Plesk panel features the freemium extension MagicSpam providing 
industry-leading spam protection technologies.
MagicSpam is keeping a detailed log of all e-mail messages processed under 
directory /var/log/magicspam/ in 
Ubuntu installations. A log file is created with the name mslog, with readable 
permissions for everyone, and rotated daily. 
The file will reveal the full list of mailboxes on the server (provided they 
received or sent at least one message in the past).

The security risk of the permission vulnerability is estimated as low with a 
common vulnerability scoring system count of 2.8. 
Successful exploitation of the file permission security vulnerability results 
in information disclosure of emails.


Proof of Concept (PoC):
===
The insecure file permission vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers 
without user account or user interaction.
For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the 
provided information and steps below to continue.

Solution - Fix & Patch:
===
The security vulnerability can be resolved byan exclude of the emails in the 
list of the affected application log files.
Another solution could be to integration an authentication mechanism  for the 
log file of the magic spam web-application.


Security Risk:
==
The security risk of the insecure file permission vulnerability in the plesk 
extension magic spam is estimated as medium (CVSS 2.8).
