DESCRIPTION:
t0pP8uZz has discovered a vulnerability in CcMail, which can be
exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security
restrictions.

The vulnerability is caused due to improper access restriction of the
administrator page (admin.php) and potentially other pages. This can
be exploited to bypass the authentication mechanism and gain access
to administrative pages by setting a specially crafted "this_cookie"
cookie.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure proper authentication or restrict
access to affected pages (e.g. via ".htaccess").
