NetWin DMail Server Multiple Remote Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 18200

Synopsis

The remote mail server is susceptible to multiple issues.

Description

The installation of NetWin DMail on the remote host suffers from an authentication bypass vulnerability in its mailing list server component, DList, and a format string vulnerability in the SMTP server component, DSmtp. An attacker can exploit the first to reveal potentially sensitive log information as well as to shut down the DList process and, provided he has the admin password, the second to crash the DSmtp process and potentially execute arbitrary code on the remote.

Solution

Block access to the affected port with a firewall.
