Qualcomm · Qualcomm Worldmail · CVE-2005-4267
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Qualcomm WorldMail version 3.0
**Description**
A stack-based buffer overflow issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long IMAP command that ends with a "}" character. This can be achieved using various IMAP commands, including "LIST", "LSUB", "SEARCH TEXT", "STATUS INBOX", "AUTHENTICATE", "FETCH", "SELECT", and "COPY".
**Recommendations**
For Qualcomm WorldMail version 3.0, consider restricting the length of IMAP commands to prevent buffer overflow exploitation until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limit the use of IMAP commands that could be used to trigger the overflow, such as avoiding the use of long commands that end with a "}" character. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
