| Detailed Description |
The Intellipeer pop3 server is vulnerable to a user account enumeration vulnerability. Nettica Corporation Intellipeer Email Server is an email server with a POP3 component for Microsoft Windows operating systems. Intellipeer Email Server versions 1.01 and earlier could allow a remote attacker to obtain valid user accounts. If a remote attacker attempts to log into the affected host by submitting a bogus user account, then the server will reply with a specific error message if the account is non-existant, while it will reply with another message if the account exists. An attacker could use this flaw to obtain a list of valid user accounts, and then use brute force techniques to find a valid password to gain access to the system.
