ICQmailclient Vulnerability

When using ICQmailclient, a user creates a temporary internet link in a default temporary directory, which remains even after the user signs out or closes ICQ. This link can be re-opened by another user, thus giving them full access to the ICQmail webaccount. The temporary link can be found in the default temp file (eg. c:emp) and appears as: http://cf.icq.com/cgi-bin/icqmail/write.pl5?uname=username&pwd=12345678

Mitigation:

Ensure that the temporary internet link is deleted after the user signs out or closes ICQ.
