NGSSoftware Insight Security Research Advisory
Name: Remote System Buffer Overrun WebAdmin.exe
Systems Affected: Windows
Severity: High Risk
Category: Buffer Overrun
Vendor URL: http://www.altn.com/
Author: Mark Litchfield (mark@ngssoftware.com)
Date: 24th June 2003
Advisory number: #NISR2406-03
Description
***********
WebAdmin allows administrators to securely manage MDaemon, RelayFax, and
WorldClient from anywhere in the world
Details
*******
There is a remotely exploitable buffer overrun in the USER parameter.
By default the webadmin.exe process is started as a system service. Any
code being passed to the server by an attacker as a result of this buffer
overrun would therefore (based on a default install) execute with system
privileges.
