What is CVE-2015-1503?

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities exist in IceWarp Mail Server versions before 11.2. These vulnerabilities enable remote attackers to exploit the application by manipulating file parameters, allowing them to read arbitrary files from the server. Specifically, an attacker can utilize a .. (dot dot) sequence in the file parameter directed at the css.php page within the webmail/client/skins/default/css directory, or by using a .../ (dot dot dot slash dot) sequence in the script or style parameters aimed at the webmail/old/calendar/minimizer/index.php page.

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
