    Summary:Ipswitch IMail Server is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow in the handling of the LOGIN command username argument. By specifying a large username beginning with one of several special characters (including %, :, *, @, and &), a remote attacker could overflow the buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with SYSTEM level privileges.
