Synopsis

The remote web server contains an application that is affected by a buffer overflow vulnerability.

Description

According to its version, the Atmail Webmail install on the remote host is a version prior to 6.6.2. It is, therefore, potentially affected by an error in the included Exim component related to the 'dkim_exim_query_dns_txt' function and DNS record parsing that could allow a buffer overflow and possibly arbitrary code execution.
