  MailEnable Logging Buffer Overflow (Nematoda, Exploit)
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY

 <http://www.mailenable.com/> MailEnable's "mail server software provides 
a powerful, scalable hosted messaging platform for Microsoft Windows".

The following is a proof of concept for the MailEnable W3C Logging 
vulnerability. Unlike other exploit codes it features a special type of 
patching shellcode designed to quickly and easily secure this 
vulnerability across your network.

DETAILS

Vulnerable Systems:
 * MailEnable Professional version 1.6 and earlier
 * MailEnable Enterprise version 1.1 and earlier

Exploit:
/*
MailEnable W3C Logging Remote Buffer Overflow Proof of Concept

This is a pretty standard stack overflow with a SE handler overwrite.
The buffer used provides quite a bit of room for shellcode, so I've 
decided
to construct a shellcode that as far as I know hasn't been made. The
shellcode provided will transport a 1008 byte win32 PE executable file. 
The shellcode
will then save it to disk, run the executable, and close the server. The
executable will serve as a small patching tool, which will download the
patch provided by mailenable.com,unzip it, restart the service, and copy
the patched exe. This shellcode will eliminate the very hole it used to 
gain
access. The old server executable will not be deleted, merely renamed to
_MEIMAPS.exe.

For those paranoid individuals who cannot read C code, YOUR-Address can be
anything as long as the length is the same as the real IP. If your IP is
192.168.0.1, then 111.222.3.4 will work fine. We're only using it to
calculate the length of the buffer for stack alignment. As you can see,
there is no call home code here :)

If you have any questions about this exploit, or how you may use it on
your network to quickly patch your Mail Enable installations, please feel 
free to e-mail us
