CVE-2012-3523

(nnrpd): Prone to STARTTLS plaintext command injection

Published Nov 11, 2012 CVSS 2.0 · 6.8 Medium EPSS 3.2% KEV · Not listed
Description
The STARTTLS implementation in nnrpd in INN before 2.5.3 does not properly restrict I/O buffering, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert commands into encrypted sessions by sending a cleartext command that is processed after TLS is in place, related to a "plaintext command injection" attack, a similar issue to CVE-2011-0411.
