MailEnable Unsafe DLL Loading Vulnerability in Administrative Executable Allowing Local Arbitrary Code Execution

Vulnerability

A vulnerability exists in MailEnable versions prior to 10.54 due to unsafe loading of the MEAIAM.DLL file by the administrative executable. The application loads this DLL from its installation directory without proper integrity checks or a secure search order. This flaw allows local attackers with write access to the directory to place a malicious MEAIAM.DLL, which is then executed, leading to arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the MailEnable process.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for local arbitrary code execution, with the executed code running under the privileges of the MailEnable administrative process.
