DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Bulwark Webmail is a self-hosted webmail client for Stalwart Mail Server. Prior to version 1.4.10, the verifyIdentity() function contained logic that returned true if no session cookies were present. This allowed unauthenticated attackers to bypass security checks and access/modify user settings via the /api/settings endpoint by providing arbitrary headers. This issue has been patched in version 1.4.10.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated authentication bypass in Bulwark Webmail versions prior to 1.4.10 allows remote attackers to access and modify user settings without credentials. The vulnerability stems from flawed verifyIdentity() logic that returns true when session cookies are absent, enabling unauthorized manipulation of the /api/settings endpoint through arbitrary header injection. …
