Stack-based buffer overflow in Novell GroupWise before 6.5.7, when HTML preview of e-mail is enabled, allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long SRC attribute in an IMG element when forwarding or replying to a crafted e-mail.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Novell GroupWise client flaw that could let an attacker run code if a user handles a malicious email. The risky condition is HTML preview enabled and the user forwarding or replying to the crafted message. It matters mainly where legacy GroupWise clients before 6.5.7 still exist. Exposure appears limited to legacy Novell GroupWise client deployments before 6.5.7 with HTML preview enabled. Organizations that migrated away from GroupWise or have no old client installations are unlikely to be exposed, based on the provided sources. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item with high impact if the software still exists. It should not displace urgent internet-facing issues unless inventory confirms vulnerable GroupWise clients remain in use. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Novell GroupWise clients to 6.5.7 or later where still present.; Disable HTML preview for legacy GroupWise clients until upgrades are complete.; Check vendor or maintained support guidance for any remaining legacy deployments..
