Security Advisory FSC-2009-2
Mail relay vulnerability

Date issued             2009-06-16
Last updated            2009-06-16
Risk level              Medium (Low/Medium/High/Critical)
Brief description       Specially crafted messages may be used to bypass mail 
                        relay restrictions.

Mitigating factors 

    * The issue only affects systems where the SMTP Turbo module is used for 
      mail distribution.
    * Incorrectly relayed messages still pass through spam filtering, which 
      decreases the vulnerability's usefulness for spam relaying.

Affected platforms      All supported platforms

Products 
F-Secure Messaging Security Gateway 5.5.x

Risk level              Medium

Notes:  An external attacker can use affected systems as mail relay by using 
        specially crafted SMTP messages. A patch for the problem has been 
        distributed to affected systems. The patch will be installed 
        automatically or wait for the administrators approval depending on 
        system settings. Administrators are urged to approve installation of 
        patch 739 without delay, or verify that automatic installation of 
        this patch has succeeded.
