Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in E-Post SPA-PRO Mail @Solomon 4.05. This affects an unknown function of the file epstimap4s.exe of the component IMAP Service. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22. The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in (1) EPSTIMAP4S.EXE and (2) SPA-IMAP4S.EXE in the IMAP service in E-Post Mail 4.05 and SPA-PRO Mail 4.05 allow remote attackers to (a) list arbitrary directories or cause a denial of service via the LIST command; or create arbitrary files via the (b) APPEND, (c) COPY, or (d) RENAME commands.

The bug was discovered 01/13/2006. The weakness was disclosed 01/25/2006 by Tan Chew Keong with Secunia Research (Website). The advisory is shared at secunia.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2006-0448 since 01/26/2006. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Technical details are known, but no exploit is available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1006 for this issue.
