Title: Ipswitch IMail User Mailbox Disclosure Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

Ipswitch IMail is an email server that serves clients their mail via a web interface. IMail supports most common email protocols such as SMTP, POP3, IMAP4, and LDAP etc.

A vulnerability exists in IMail which could enable an authenticated user to view the mailbox of another IMail user.

This accomplished using directory traversal techniques while logged into the server with a valid session ID. Appending '../' along with a known username and a legitimate directory, will disclose the requested directory.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability will lead to the disclosure of sensitive data and possibly assist in further compromise of a user's mailbox.
