The user does this by passing a long hexadecimal string to the COM method Utilities.BlowfishDecrypt, which checked no authentication. The routine converted hexadecimal input of any length into a fixed 255-byte buffer before decrypting it in place. The result is a denial of service (service crash), and possibly code execution with the privileges of the service account." } ], "affected": [ { "vendor": "Progressive Robot Ltd", "product": "hMailServer", "repo": "https://gitlab.com/hmailserver/hmailserver", "versions": [ { "version": "6.0.0", "status": "affected", "lessThan": "6.3.4", "versionType": "semver" } ], "defaultStatus": "unaffected" } ], "problemTypes": [ { "descriptions": [ { "lang": "en", "description": "CWE-122: Heap-based Buffer Overflow", "cweId": "CWE-122", "type": "CWE" } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://gitlab.com/hmailserver/hmailserver/-/commit/135a1908ff820ed587d5f180f98c53bd010d8931" }, { "url": "https://gitlab.com/hmailserver/hmailserver/-/releases/v6.3.4" }, { "url": "https://gitlab.com/hmailserver/hmailserver/-/work_items/49" } ], "metrics": [ { "format": "CVSS", "scenarios": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "GENERAL" } ], "cvssV3_1": { "version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "attackVector": "LOCAL", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "privilegesRequired": "LOW", "userInteraction": "NONE", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 7.8, "baseSeverity": "HIGH" } } ], "solutions": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "Upgrade to hMailServer 6.3.6, which also requires authentication for the COM Utilities helpers (6.3.4 is the first release with this routine fixed)." } ], "credits": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "Found in the hMailServer project's own code review (Progressive Robot Ltd)", "type": "finder" } ], "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "ceab7361-8a18-47b1-92ba-4d7d25f6715a", "shortName": "GitLab", "dateUpdated": "2026-10-08T10:53:10.627Z" } } } }
