descriptionThe remote host is running Winmail Server, a commercial mail server for Windows from AMAX Information Technologies. The web interface that is used by Winmail Server for reading mail and administering the server fails to sanitize user-supplied input to various parameters and scripts. Beyond the usual cross-site scripting attacks, this can also be leveraged by an unauthenticated attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the affected system, which could compromise the system
