15
          There exists an unauthenticated buffer overflow vulnerability
16
        in the POP3 server of Seattle Lab Mail 5.5 when sending a password
17
        with excessive length.
18

19
        Successful exploitation should not crash either the
20
        service or the server; however, after initial use the
21
        port cannot be reused for successive exploitation until
22
        the service has been restarted. Consider using a command
23
        execution payload following the bind shell to restart
24
        the service if you need to reuse the same port.
25

26
        The overflow appears to occur in the debugging/error reporting
27
        section of the slmail.exe executable, and there are multiple
28
        offsets that will lead to successful exploitation. This exploit
29
        uses 2606, the offset that creates the smallest overall payload.
30
        The other offset is 4654.
31

32
        The return address is overwritten with a "jmp esp" call from the
33
        application library SLMFC.DLL found in %SYSTEM%\\system32\\. This
34
        return address works against all version of Windows and service packs.
35

36
        The last modification date on the library is dated 06/02/99. Assuming
37
        that the code where the overflow occurs has not changed in some time,
38
        prior version of SLMail may also be vulnerable with this exploit. The
39
        author has not been able to acquire older versions of SLMail for
40
        testing purposes. Please let us know if you were able to get this
41
        exploit working against other SLMail versions.
