Title: Lotus Domino Mail Loop Denial of Service Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
A potential denial of service vulnerability exists in some versions of Lotus Domino server.
The problem occurs when a message is received by the server with the mail recipient set as being at a domain that is not local to the server, and the sender as bounce@[127.0.0.1].
If this occurs, the server will attempt to bounce the message and will go into a bounce loop and consume all of the system's CPU, requiring that the server be restarted and the message be manually removed from the queue.
