Title: Lotus Domino Mail Server 'Policy' Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

A buffer overflow vulnerability has been reported in Lotus Domino Mail Server.

Lotus Domino Mail Server fails to properly validate user supplied input to the field which specifies permitted domain names in mail forwarding policy.

As a result, if the policy feature is enabled, maliciously-crafted values as input to this field can overflow the relevant buffer, allowing the attacker to crash the server or, potentially, to execute arbitrary code with the privilege level of the mail server.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to complete comprimise of the host.

Affected Products:

  • Lotus Domino Mail Server 5.0.5
