Magic Winmail upload.php script file upload
| magicwinmail-uploadphp-file-upload (19108) |  Medium Risk |
Description:
Magic Winmail Server is a POP3 and SMTP server for Microsoft Windows platforms. Magic Winmail Server version 4.0 Build 1112 and possibly earlier versions running on Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4 and Windows XP SP2 could allow an authenticated remote attacker to upload arbitrary files to the server, caused by a vulnerability in the upload.php script. The upload.php script is used to upload an email attachment when writing an email. A remote attacker could send a specially-crafted file name to the upload.php script to traverse directories and upload arbitrary files to a location on the server. If the default installation of the Winmail server is used, the attacker can install and execute arbitrary PHP scripts with LOCAL SYSTEM privileges.
Consequences:
Gain Access
Remedy:
Upgrade to the latest version of Magic Winmail Server (4.0 Build 1318 or later), available from the Winmail Server Web site. See References.
