        Hello,

If you have time and skills, there are binary flaws to exploit in BES
software like this one:

The easiest target is the Attachment Server. It uses many libraries
(Open Source or not), like ZLib, GraphicsMagick, and the like. Just look
for publicly known bugs in those libraries and you will find them in the
Attachment Server.

A very good presentation (from FX) is available at:
