POP3 Unencrypted Cleartext Logins |
||
Checks if POP3 daemon allows unencrypted cleartext logins Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is running a POP3 daemon that permits cleartext logins over unencrypted connections. A possible hacker can uncover user names and passwords by sniffing traffic to the POP3 daemon if a less secure authentication mechanism (eg, USER command, AUTH PLAIN, AUTH LOGIN) is used. Solution : Contact your vendor for a fix or encrypt traffic with SSL / TLS using stunnel. See also : RFC 2222 for infomation about SASL. RFC 2595 for information about TLS with POP3.
