CVE-2010-2813

First published: Mon Jul 26 2010(Updated: )

A denial of service flaw was found in the way SquirrelMail processed random login attempts with 8-bit characters in the password. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause the server system potentially to run out of the hard disk space via random login attempts, causing SquirrelMail temporarily to accept the login and create a preferences file for the given username.
