Postfix on Mac OS X 10.3.x through 10.3.5, with SMTPD AUTH enabled, does not properly clear the username between authentication attempts, which allows users with the longest username to prevent other valid users from being able to authenticate.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw can let one mail user block other legitimate users from authenticating to Postfix on affected Mac OS X Panther systems. It is an availability issue, not evidence of mail theft or server takeover in the provided sources. Exposure appears limited to legacy Mac OS X 10.3.x through 10.3.5 systems running Postfix with SMTPD AUTH enabled. Modern environments are unlikely to be affected unless they still operate these obsolete mail hosts. Treat this as a targeted legacy-system availability risk. Prioritize if the organization still depends on Mac OS X Panther mail servers for user authentication; otherwise track as historical exposure cleanup. Mitigation focus: Identify any Mac OS X 10.3.x through 10.3.5 mail servers.; Confirm whether Postfix SMTPD AUTH is enabled on those systems.; Review Apple advisory APPLE-SA-2004-09-30 for the vendor-supported fix..
