TITLE:
MDaemon IMAP Server "FETCH" Command Buffer Overflow

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA29382

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/29382/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
MDaemon 9.x
http://secunia.com/product/10271/

DESCRIPTION:
Matteo Memelli has discovered a vulnerability in MDaemon, which can
be exploited by malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the IMAP
server when processing the "FETCH" command. This can be exploited to
cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted "FETCH"
command containing an overly long section specification in a "BODY"
data item.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but
requires valid user credentials.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 9.6.4. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Grant only trusted users access to the affected service.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Matteo Memelli a.k.a. ryujin
