Title: Smail-3 Unspecified Remote Vulnerability
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
Smail-3 is a Mail Transport Agent (MTA). It is available for most UNIX based platforms.
Smail-3 is reported prone to an unspecified vulnerability that may be related to the issues that are described in BID 12899 (Smail-3 Multiple Remote and Local Vulnerabilities). It is reported that the vulnerability manifests because insufficient boundary checks are performed on a pointer 'ap' before this value is concatenated with another pointer value 'p' using strcat(). It is conjectured that this may result in memory corruption ultimately leading to arbitrary code execution, although this is not confirmed.
Few details are known in regards to this issue, this BID will be updated as soon as further information is made available.
