SurfControl SuperScout Email filter for SMTP 3.5.1 is reportedly vulnerable to a denial of service attack (and possible buffer overflow). This is possible by connecting to the SMTP service and sending HELO with an excessively long argument (greater than 905 characters). If the software is set to automatically restart, SMTP and filtering services will resume once this has happened. Other SMTP commands may also be used to initiate this condition. Whether or not other versions are vulnerable is unknown.
