All-mail is an smtp server for Windows NT and 2000 platforms offered by Nevis Systems. It is vulnerable to remotely exploitable buffer overflow attacks that may lead to an attacker gaining control of the victim host.
The condition is known to occur in at least two places. The values supplied by the user that argument the "mail from" and "rcpt to" smtp commands are stored in buffers of predefined length. It is not verified that the amount data is within the predefined size limits before it is copied onto the stack during function calls. Consequently it is possible for users to overwrite stack variables (with the excessive data..) such as the calling function's return address wi

Whois scripts provide InterNIC lookup services via HTTP. The vulnerable scripts include versions of Matt's Whois and CGI City Whois. Older versions of these fail to filter metacharacters, allowing execution of arbitrary commands by embedding the commands in the domain name to lookup. Specifically, the UNIX command separation character ";" can be used to execute commands. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability would allow an attacker to execute commands with the privileges of the web server process, which could result in retrieval of sensitive information, web defacements, etc.
Depending on the specific script used, the following syntaxes have been shown to allow intrusion:
