Alt-N MDaemon is reportedly prone to a remote stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability. This vulnerability is due to a failure of the application to properly validate buffer sizes when processing input. It should be noted that this issue can only be exploited by clients authenticated to the affected IMAP server; any user with an email account can leverage this issue. This issue can be leveraged to cause the affected process to crash, denying service to legitimate users. It has been reported that this issue can also be leveraged to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the server on an affected computer.
