Hi, Thanks for the email. This error was not an overflow issue but a bug in the service (i.e. the error would cause the service to stop, but could the exploiter could not exploit this further or run code on the server). A fix for the bug can be found at: http://www.mailenable.com/hotfix Thanks Peter Fregon MailEnable Pty.

Sending a request like: c:\telnet localhost 8080 GET / HTTP/1.0 Authorization: A Crashes the services. The overflow seems to occur in the Authorization header variable. A single character will lead to the crash. I did no further research in order to fully exploit this vuln.
