MailMarshal Spam Quarantine Interface Arbitrary Account Password Retrieval

high Nessus Plugin ID 25711

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server contains an ASP.NET script that is susceptible to an information disclosure vulnerability.

Description

The remote host is running the Spam Quarantine Management web component of MailMarshal SMTP, a mail server for Windows.

The version of the Spam Quarantine Management web component installed on the remote host fails to sanitize input to the 'emailTextBox' parameter of the 'Register.aspx' script before using it in database queries. By appending a long string of blanks and his own email address, an unauthenticated attacker may be able to leverage this issue to reset and retrieve the password to any user account provided he knows the email address associated with it.

Solution

Upgrade to MailMarshal SMTP 6.2.1 or later.
