CVE-2000-1203

CVSS v2.0

5.0

Medium

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Lotus Domino SMTP server versions 4.63 through 5.08
Description: The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by consuming CPU resources. This is achieved by forging an email message with the sender as bounce@[127.0.0.1] (localhost), which causes the server to enter a mail loop.
Recommendations: For versions 4.63 through 5.08, consider restricting access to the SMTP server to prevent forged email messages, and implement measures to detect and prevent mail loops.
