Blake> This is a configuration issue. Should the fact that NT can be configured to accept a blank Admin password have a CVE entry? LeBlanc> This is documented as bad practice - if you have a wide distribution mailing list, you should only allow certain users to send mail to it. I don't think we want to start listing all possible admin errors as vulnerabilities. Frech> XF:microsoft-mail-client-dos(4893) Levy> I agree with all the above comments. Furthermore the delivery status notification RFC makes it clear that mailing list software should strip messages from DSN headers. I assume Microsoft's products are using the DSN standard and not something else. |
