                  MDaemon 3.5.4 Dos-Device DoS

Author: Peter Gründl <peter.grundl () defcom com>
Release Date: 2001-03-15
======================================================================
------------------------=[Brief Description]=-------------------------
Webservices in the Mdaemon package can be crashed by requesting a
malicious URL.

------------------------=[Affected Systems]=--------------------------
- MDaemon 3.5.4 Standard for Windows NT/2000
- MDaemon 3.5.4 Pro for Windows NT/2000

----------------------=[Detailed Description]=------------------------
There is a problem with the way the Worldclient (default port 3000)
and the Webconfig service (default port 3001) handle requests for dos-
devices.

If a user requests eg. "http://www.foo.org:3000/aux";, the Worldclient
service will crash. The same fault affects the Webconfig service.
The service needs to be restarted from the Mdaemon console.

I don't know, but it's a CON/CON old bug, isn't it?

If you pacthed your NT Box, the app is not vulnerable to this BUG, isn't it?
