CVE-2005-4558: IceWarp Web Mail 5.5.1, as used by Merak Mail Server 8.3.0r and VisNetic Mail Server version 8.3.0 build 1,...

IceWarp Web Mail 5.5.1, as used by Merak Mail Server 8.3.0r and VisNetic Mail Server version 8.3.0 build 1, does not properly restrict acceptable values for the language parameter to mail/settings.html before it is stored in a database, which can allow remote authenticated users to include arbitrary PHP code via a URL in a modified lang_settings parameter to mail/index.html.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This 2005 issue affects legacy IceWarp Web Mail deployments used with specific Merak and VisNetic Mail Server versions. An authenticated webmail user could abuse language settings so the server includes PHP code from a URL. If exploitable, this could compromise the webmail server, but the provided sources do not give a CVSS score or active exploitation evidence. Exposure is most likely in old, internet-accessible webmail systems still running IceWarp Web Mail 5.5.1 with the named Merak or VisNetic versions. Modern systems are unlikely to be affected unless they preserve this legacy component or code path. Prioritize if any named legacy webmail system remains reachable, especially from the internet. The issue is old, but potential PHP code inclusion can lead to server compromise. If no such legacy products exist, business urgency is low after documentation of non-exposure. Mitigation focus: Inventory for the named IceWarp, Merak, and VisNetic versions.; Check vendor or archived advisory guidance for fixed versions or supported replacements.; Retire or isolate unsupported legacy webmail deployments..
