Buffer overflow on Lotus Notes' POP3 service

[Michel Arboi <arboi () YAHOO COM>]

I ran Nessus 1.0.7a against a Linux box running Lotus Notes 5.0.6a
The POP3 service crashed (SIGSEGV) and the server said it freezed all
its threads (nice DoS).

Apparently, Nessus sent:
USER test
PASS xxxxxxx[snip]

I did not find this bug in the archives. I did not check if it could be
exploited or if other systems/versions are vulnerable.
