RE: Vulnerability discovered on Lotus Domino server "admin4.nsf"

Just go ahead and execute comands via the interface that should work
perfectly 8depends on the versión of your lotus is the way is going to show,
you could also hijack other connections to servers or worse.

I would suggest you add up an account so client know you are there, you
don't want any lawsuits because of freaky admins do you?

Make shure the account has admin access =)

Should work ok, the best manual is the lotus manual, I have them in print
but you can check them out electronically im shure ...

Asunto: Vulnerability discovered on Lotus Domino server "admin4.nsf"

Hi,

I'm doing an external blackbox PT on a mail server running Lotus
Domino. The server OS is Windows 2000 and web server is Lotus Domino.
It has following ports open:

80 - Lotus Domino httpd
443 - Lotus Domino httpd
1352 - Lotus Domino server
5631 - PCAnywhere

During a manual assessment I discovered "admin4.nsf" on server,
accessible without any sort of authentication.  It is suppose to be
the Administrator Request Database. From the name I suppose this
should be something that shouldn't be visible to everyone. I don't
have any experience in Lotus Domino. I read a couple of docs on
Internet but couldn't get the real implication of such a
vulnerability. I'm a little hesitant to perform any actions with the
interface as it might disrupt some activities on the server and client
might not like it.

Is there anybody on the list who could guide me on the implication of
this vulnerability and how to get a proper sense of it. What are the
functionalities of 'admin4.nsf' and what damage could it do if an
un-authenticated user has access to it.

Looking forward to some enlightenment on this topic.

Now I'm going to downlaod a Lotus client and see what I can do with
the other open port "1352", looks like another hole from where I can
find my way in.

Thank you.
