I. Introduction:
Janaserver is Internet gateway software for Windows platform can act as
HTTP/FTP/NEWS/SNTP server, SOCKS4/SOCKS5/HTTP/FTP/TELNET/Real Audio
proxy, E-mail gateway and port mapper. JanaServer up to 1.46 was
freeware, JanaServer 2.0 and above is shareware, it's intensively used
in SOHO networks. Under NT platforms it runs as a service with system
privileges.
II. Details:
8 vulnerabilities were identified:
1. HTTP server buffer overflow.
GET / HTTP/[buffer].0
causes overflow in logging component
2. HTTP proxy buffer overflow
Same overflow in HTTP proxy server running on TCP/3128.
3. Socks5 Username/Password/Hostname signed/unsigned buffer overflow
Username, password or hostname in SOCKS5 request longer than 127
characters cause buffer overflow because of invalid usage of signed
variable.
4. POP3 gateway buffer overflow.
oversized reply of POP3 server
+OK [buffer]
causes buffer overflow in logging component.
5. SMTP gateway buffer overflow
same overflow in SMTP server response:
nnn [buffer]
6. FTP server PASV system-wide DoS
On FTP PASV command server allocates TCP port without closing previously
allocated port. In makes it possible to consume all TCP ports available
in system.
7. POP3 username/password bruteforce
POP3 gateway gives different diagnostics for valid and invalid username
and allows unlimited number of authentication attempts. It makes it
easy to bruteforce username/password.
8. POP3 array index overrun (JanaServer <= 1.46)
During mailbox commands there is no check message index is valid. For
example
RETR 1000000
or
DELE 1000000
will cause server to crash. JanaServer 2.2.1 is not vulnerable.
III. Workarounds:
1. Disable HTTP logging
2. Disable HTTP proxy logging
3. Disable socks proxy
4,5. Edit Texte.dat file, replace all occurrences of "%s" to "%.255s" in
lines numbered from 300 to 455.
6. Disable FTP server
7,8 Disable mail gateway
IV. Vendor and solution:
