Detail

The STARTTLS implementation in Postfix 2.4.x before 2.4.16, 2.5.x before 2.5.12, 2.6.x before 2.6.9, and 2.7.x before 2.7.3 does not properly restrict I/O buffering, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert commands into encrypted SMTP sessions by sending a cleartext command that is processed after TLS is in place, related to a "plaintext command injection" attack.

Title: DSA-2346-1 proftpd-dfsg -- several
Description: Several vulnerabilities were discovered in ProFTPD, an FTP server: ProFTPD incorrectly uses data from an unencrypted input buffer after encryption has been enabled with STARTTLS, an issue similar to CVE-2011-0411. CVE-2011-4130 ProFTPD uses a response pool after freeing it under exceptional conditions, possibly leading to remote code execution

72186 Cyrus IMAP Server STARTTLS Arbitrary Plaintext Command Injection

Cyrus IMAP Server contains a flaw related to the TLS implementation failing to properly clear transport layer buffers when changing from plaintext to ciphertext upon receipt of the 'STARTTLS' command. This may allow a remote attacker to inject arbitrary plaintext data which will be executed upon transition to ciphertext.
