Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in Ipswitch Ipswitch Collaboration Suite up to 2006.1 (Groupware Software). This affects an unknown part. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Multiple buffer overflows in Ipswitch IMail Server 2006 before 2006.21 (1) allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors in Imailsec and (2) allow attackers to have an unknown impact via an unspecified vector related to "subscribe."

The bug was discovered 07/18/2007. The weakness was shared 07/19/2007 by Manuel Santamarina Suarez (TippingPoint) with TippingPoint and the Zero Day Initiative (Website). The advisory is shared at securityfocus.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2007-3927 since 07/20/2007. 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 unknown but a public exploit is available.

A public exploit has been developed in Perl. The exploit is shared for download at securityfocus.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability was handled as a non-public zero-day exploit for at least 1 days. During that time the estimated underground price was around $0-$5k. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 25737 (Ipswitch IMail Server < 2006.21 Multiple Vulnerabilities), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Windows and running in the context r. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 74228 (Ipswitch IMail Server/Collaboration Suite Multiple Buffer Overflows).

Upgrading to version 2006.2 eliminates this vulnerability. A possible mitigation has been published before and not just after the disclosure of the vulnerability. Furthermore it is possible to detect and prevent this kind of attack with TippingPoint and the filter 8968.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (35504), Tenable (25737), SecurityFocus (BID 24962†), OSVDB (45818†) and Secunia (SA26123†). The entries VDB-37928, VDB-37927 and VDB-46118 are related to this item. Several companies clearly confirm that VulDB is the primary source for best vulnerability data.
