According to its self-reported version number, the version of Symantec Messaging Gateway running on the remote host is 9.5.x and has the following vulnerabilities :

  • Multiple XSS vulnerabilities exist. (CVE-2012-0307)

  • Lack of password protection on sensitive functions as well as of CSRF protection could be abused through CSRF attacks, for example, to add a backdoor administrator account. (CVE-2012-0308)

  • The ‘support’ account with SSH access is secured with the password ‘symantec’. (CVE-2012-3579)

  • An unspecified web application modification issue exists. (CVE-2012-3580)

  • An unspecified flaw may allow a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive component version information. (CVE-2012-3581)

  • An authenticated user is able to download arbitrary files with the permissions of the Webserver user using specially crafted GET requests, such as using the ‘logFile’ parameter of ‘brightmail/export’, the ‘localBackupFileSelection’ parameter of ‘brightmail/admin/restore/download.do’, and possibly others. (CVE-2012-4347)
