Security Issues and Fixes: 192.168.0.50
Type Port Issue and Fix
Vulnerability smtp (25/tcp) This system appears to be running a version of the Microsoft Exchange
SMTP service that is vulnerable to a flaw in the XEXCH50 extended verb.
This flaw can be used to completely crash Exchange 5.5 as well as execute
arbitrary code on Exchange 2000.

Solution : See http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-046.mspx
Risk factor : High
CVE : CVE-2003-0714
BID : 8838
Other references : IAVA:2003-A-0031, IAVA:2003-a-0016
Nessus ID : 11889
Warning smtp (25/tcp) A security vulnerability results
because of an unchecked buffer in the IMC code that
generates the response to the EHLO protocol command.
If the buffer were overrun with data it would result in
either the failure of the IMC or could allow the
attacker to run code in the security context of the IMC,
which runs as Exchange5.5 Service Account.

** Nessus only uses the banner header to determine
if this vulnerability exists and does not check
for or attempt an actual overflow.

Solution : see
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS02-037.mspx

Risk factor : Medium
CVE : CVE-2002-0698
BID : 5306
Nessus ID : 11053
Informational smtp (25/tcp) An SMTP server is running on this port
Here is its banner :
220 server_nt.DEMO.com ESMTP Server (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service 5.5.2653.13) ready
Nessus ID : 10330
Informational smtp (25/tcp)
Synopsis :

An SMTP server is listening on the remote port.

Description :

The remote host is running a mail (SMTP) server on this port.

Since SMTP servers are the targets of spammers, it is recommended you
disable it if you do not use it.

Solution :

Disable this service if you do not use it, or filter incoming traffic
to this port.

Risk factor :

None

Plugin output :

Remote SMTP server banner :
220 server_nt.DEMO.com ESMTP Server (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service 5.5.2653.13) ready

Warning http (80/tcp)
It is possible to browse the information of the OWA server by accessing as an
anonymous user with the following URL:

http://www.example.com/exchange/root.asp?acs=anon

After this access, the anonymous user can search for valid users in the OWA
server and can enumerate all users by accessing the following URL:

http://www.example.com/exchange/finduser/details.asp?obj=XXX
(where XXX is a string of 65 hexadecimal numbers)

Data that can be accessed by an anonymous user
may include: usernames, server names, email name accounts,
phone numbers, departments, office, management relationships...

This information will help an attacker to make social
engineering attacks with the knowledge gained. This attack
can be easily automated since, even if direct access to search
is not possible, you only need the cookie given on the anonymous
login access.

Administrators might be interested in consulting
the following URL:

http://support.microsoft.com/support/exchange/content/whitepapers/owaguide.doc

Solution:
Disable anonymous access to OWA. Follow these steps:
1. In Microsoft Exchange Administrator open the Configuration container.
2. Choose Protocols, and then double-click HTTP (Web) Site Settings
3. Unselect the 'Allow anonymous users to access
the anonymous public folders' check box.
4. Select the Folder Shortcuts tab.
5. Remove all folders which are allowed anonymous viewing.
6. Choose OK.
7. Remove the anonymous access from the login web pages.

Risk factor : Medium
CVE : CVE-2001-0660
BID : 3301
Nessus ID : 10781

Informational http (80/tcp)
Synopsis :

This web server leaks a private IP address through its HTTP headers.

Description :

This may expose internal IP addresses that are usually hidden or masked
behind a Network Address Translation (NAT) Firewall or proxy server.

There is a known issue with IIS 4.0 doing this in its default configuration.

Risk factor :

None / CVSS Base Score : 0
(AV:R/AC:L/Au:NR/C:N/A:N/I:N/B:N)

Plugin output :

This web server leaks the following private IP address : 192.168.30.2
CVE : CVE-2000-0649
BID : 1499
Nessus ID : 10759
Informational http (80/tcp)
Synopsis :

Frontpage extensions are enabled.

Description :

The remote web server appears to be running with the Frontpage extensions.
Frontpage allows remote web developers and administrators to modify web
content from a remote location. While this is a fairly typical scenario
on an internal Local Area Network, the Frontpage extensions should not
be available to anonymous users via the Internet (or any other untrusted
3rd party network).

Risk factor :

None / CVSS Base Score : 0
(AV:R/AC:L/Au:NR/C:N/A:N/I:N/B:N)

Plugin output :

The remote frontpage server leaks information regarding the name anonymous user
By knowing the name of the anonymous user, more sophisticated attacks may be launched
We could gather that the name of the anonymous user is : IUSR_SERVER_NT
