    I. Introduction:

    Janaserver is Internet gateway software for Windows platform can act as
    HTTP/FTP/NEWS/SNTP server, SOCKS4/SOCKS5/HTTP/FTP/TELNET/Real Audio
    proxy, E-mail gateway and port mapper. JanaServer up to 1.46 was
    freeware, JanaServer 2.0 and above is shareware, it's intensively used
    in SOHO networks. Under NT platforms it runs as a service with system
    privileges.

    II. Details:

    8 vulnerabilities were identified:

    1. HTTP server buffer overflow.

    GET / HTTP/[buffer].0

    causes overflow in logging component

    2. HTTP proxy buffer overflow

    Same overflow in HTTP proxy server running on TCP/3128.

    3. Socks5 Username/Password/Hostname signed/unsigned buffer overflow

    Username, password or hostname in SOCKS5 request longer than 127
    characters cause buffer overflow because of invalid usage of signed
    variable.

    4. POP3 gateway buffer overflow.

    oversized reply of POP3 server

    +OK [buffer]

    causes buffer overflow in logging component.

    5. SMTP gateway buffer overflow

    same overflow in SMTP server response:

    nnn [buffer]

    6. FTP server PASV system-wide DoS

    On FTP PASV command server allocates TCP port without closing previously
    allocated port. In makes it possible to consume all TCP ports available
    in system.

    7. POP3 username/password bruteforce

    POP3 gateway gives different diagnostics for valid and invalid username
    and allows unlimited number of authentication attempts. It makes it
    easy to bruteforce username/password.

    8. POP3 array index overrun (JanaServer <= 1.46)

    During mailbox commands there is no check message index is valid. For
    example

    RETR 1000000
    or
    DELE 1000000

    will cause server to crash. JanaServer 2.2.1 is not vulnerable.

    III. Workarounds:

    1. Disable HTTP logging
    2. Disable HTTP proxy logging
    3. Disable socks proxy
    4,5. Edit Texte.dat file, replace all occurrences of "%s" to "%.255s" in
    lines numbered from 300 to 455.
    6. Disable FTP server
    7,8 Disable mail gateway

    IV. Vendor and solution:

    Vendor was informed on July, 18 2002. Vendor claims all bugs are fixed.
    No reply from vendor since July, 19 2002. There is no information about
    fixed version available on product's site.
