## Internet Message Access Protocol
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The **Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP)** is designed for the purpose of enabling users to **access their email messages from any location**, primarily through an Internet connection. In essence, emails are **retained on a server** rather than being downloaded and stored on an individual's personal device. This means that when an email is accessed or read, it is done **directly from the server**. This capability allows for the convenience of checking emails from **multiple devices**, ensuring that no messages are missed regardless of the device used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By default, the IMAP protocol works on two ports:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* **Port 143** - this is the default IMAP non-encrypted port
|
||
|
|
* **Port 993** - this is the port you need to use if you want to connect using IMAP securely
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
PORT STATE SERVICE REASON
|
||
|
|
143/tcp open imap syn-ack
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Banner grabbing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
nc -nv <IP> 143
|
||
|
|
openssl s_client -connect <IP>:993 -quiet
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### NTLM Auth - Information disclosure
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the server supports NTLM auth (Windows) you can obtain sensitive info (versions):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
root@kali: telnet example.com 143
|
||
|
|
* OK The Microsoft Exchange IMAP4 service is ready.
|
||
|
|
>> a1 AUTHENTICATE NTLM

|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Or **automate** this with **nmap** plugin `imap-ntlm-info.nse`

### CURL
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Basic navigation is possible with [CURL](https://ec.haxx.se/usingcurl/usingcurl-reademail#imap), but the documentation is light on details so checking the [source](https://github.com/curl/curl/blob/master/lib/imap.c) is recommended for precise details.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Listing mailboxes (imap command `LIST "" "*"`)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
curl -k 'imaps://1.2.3.4/' --user user:pass
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Listing messages in a mailbox (imap command `SELECT INBOX` and then `SEARCH ALL`)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
curl -k 'imaps://1.2.3.4/INBOX?ALL' --user user:pass
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The result of this search is a list of message indicies.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Its also possible to provide more complex search terms. e.g. searching for drafts with password in mail body:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
curl -k 'imaps://1.2.3.4/Drafts?TEXT password' --user user:pass
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A nice overview of the search terms possible is located [here](https://www.atmail.com/blog/imap-commands/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Downloading a message (imap command `SELECT Drafts` and then `FETCH 1 BODY[]`)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
curl -k 'imaps://1.2.3.4/Drafts;MAILINDEX=1' --user user:pass
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The mail index will be the same index returned from the search operation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is also possible to use `UID` (unique id) to access messages, however it is less conveniant as the search command needs to be manually formatted. E.g.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
curl -k 'imaps://1.2.3.4/INBOX' -X 'UID SEARCH ALL' --user user:pass
|
||
|
|
curl -k 'imaps://1.2.3.4/INBOX;UID=1' --user user:pass
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also, possible to download just parts of a message, e.g. subject and sender of first 5 messages (the `-v` is required to see the subject and sender):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
$ curl -k 'imaps://1.2.3.4/INBOX' -X 'FETCH 1:5 BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (SUBJECT FROM)]' --user user:pass -v 2>&1 | grep '^<'
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Although, its probably cleaner to just write a little for loop:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
for m in {1..5}; do
|
||
|
|
echo $m
|
||
|
|
curl "imap://1.2.3.4/INBOX;MAILINDEX=$m;SECTION=HEADER.FIELDS%20(SUBJECT%20FROM)" --user user:pass
|
||
|
|
done
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
