# Software: NoticeWare E-mail Sever (POP3) 5.1.2.2 Pre-Auth DoS #
# Discovered and Coded by: Paul Hand aka rAWjAW #
# Blog: http://rawjaw-security.blogspot.com #
# E-mail: phand3754<at>gmail<dot>com #
# #
# Description: NoticeWare E-mail Server has many odd querks about it #
# This DoS leverages the fact that the POP3 server can only handle #
# so many exceptions before you get an access violation at 0x00000008 #
# which is given from an EDX+8 where EDX is 0x00000000. #
# I've tried many things to get code execution and non are prevalent. #
# If you fuzz almost any of the commands for the POP3 server you will get it to #
# crash. Also, if you are authenticated and do "LIST 0.5" (numerous times) you #
# will get the same access violation you do with this DoS. #
