Subject: Problems with FTGate
From: Andrew Lewis (wizdumbUNIX.ZA.NET)
Date: Mon Jun 26 2000 - 13:23:08 CDT


The Problem:
------------
FTGate's POP3 server responds to invalid USER requests with a -ERR code
and doesn't disconnect you. This means that it is possible to bruteforce
usernames and passwords with ease.
