A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the MailCheck821Address function within nnotes.dll, as used by the nrouter.exe service in IBM Lotus Domino server versions 8.0.x before 8.0.2 FP5 and 8.5.x before 8.5.1 FP2. The vulnerability is triggered by a long e-mail address in an ORGANIZER:mailto header in an iCalendar calendar-invitation e-mail message. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on the affected server.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2010-3407) in IBM Lotus Domino 8.5's iCalendar processing. The exploit works by sending a specially crafted SMTP message to the Domino server, specifically abusing the ORGANIZER;mailto header in an iCalendar message to trigger a stack-based buffer overflow in the nnotes.dll library, executed by the nRouter.exe process. The module supports multiple Windows targets (Windows 2000 SP4, Windows Server 2003 SP0/SP2) and includes logic for different return addresses and ROP chains to bypass DEP on newer systems. The payload is fully customizable using Metasploit's payload system, allowing for arbitrary code execution (e.g., reverse shell, meterpreter). The exploit requires valid Domino mailbox credentials and network access to the SMTP service (default port 25). The code is mature, weaponized, and part of the Metasploit framework, making it easy to use and adapt for penetration testing or red teaming.
