----------------------------------------
Synopsis
----------------------------------------
Softalk IMAP Server 8.5.1 is vulnerable to denial-of-service (DoS)
attacks.
The IMAP server crashes when processing an APPEND command with a
strange parameter (see details bellow). Other commands may also
trigger the same behavior.

Product: Softalk Mail Server
Version: 8.5.1.431 and probably the older versions
Vendor: Softalk (www.softalkltd.com)
Type: Denial-of-service
Risk: service disruption
Remote: Yes
Discovered by: João Antunes (AJECT -- Attack Injection Tool) on 05/Jun/
2008
Exploit: Not Available
Solution: Not Available
Status: Developers were contacted and should be releasing a corrected
version soon (8.5.2 beta 2)

----------------------------------------
Vulnerability Description
----------------------------------------
The vulnerability can be triggered by sending the following messages
to the imap server:
A001 LOGIN user password
A01 APPEND Ax5000 (UIDNEXT MESSAGES) (…) Ax5000 (UIDNEXT MESSAGES)

For the sake of legibility, the APPEND command was presented above in
a condensed form.
The "(...)" means that the parameters should be repeated several times
in the same command (e.g., ten times). Successful exploitation results
in a remote denial of service.
