The version of Symantec Mail Security for Exchange (SMSMSE) or Symantec Mail Security for Domino (SMSDOM) installed on the remote Windows host is affected by multiple denial of service vulnerabilities in the decomposer engine :
A denial of service vulnerability exists in the decomposer engine due to an out-of-bounds read error that occurs when decompressing RAR archives. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted RAR file, to crash the application.
(CVE-2016-5309)
A denial of service vulnerability exists in the decomposer engine due to memory corruption issue that occurs when decompressing RAR archives. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted RAR file, to crash the application.
(CVE-2016-5310)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
