IMAP: Qualcomm WorldMail IMAP Literal Token Parsing Buffer Overflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Qualcomm WorldMail IMAP service. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the targeted service.
Extended Description
WorldMail IMAPd service is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure in the application to do proper bounds checking on user-supplied data before using it in finite-sized buffers. An attacker can exploit this issue to crash the server resulting in a denial of service to legitimate users. Arbitrary code execution may also be possible; this may facilitate a compromise of the underlying system. This issue is reported to affect IMAPd service version 6.1.19.0 of WorldMail 3.0; other versions may also be vulnerable.
