DescriptionCVE.org

Netmaker disables certificate verification on the connection to the configured mail server. The sender in pro/email/smtp.go assigns a TLS configuration whose skip-verify field is set to true unconditionally, directly beneath a comment stating that the setting should be false in production. No configuration value governs it and no code path restores verification, so the client accepts any certificate the mail server presents, including one an interposing party supplies. Mail that Netmaker sends over that connection includes password-reset messages carrying single-use tokens and user invitations carrying enrolment links, so a party positioned on the path between the server and its mail relay can read those messages in transit and use a captured reset token before the intended recipient does. The setting is absent from the development branch but present in the latest release.

AnalysisAI

Unconditional TLS certificate verification bypass in Netmaker's SMTP client (pro/email/smtp.go, v1.6.0) exposes sensitive email traffic to network-positioned adversaries. The hardcoded InsecureSkipVerify=true setting - present directly beneath a developer comment acknowledging it should be false in production - means Netmaker accepts any certificate its mail relay presents, including one supplied by an intercepting party. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to be network-positioned on the path between the Netmaker server and its configured SMTP mail relay - this is the AT:P (attack requirement: presence) condition encoded in the CVSS 4.0 vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.3 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:L/VA:N) captures the key tension: high confidentiality impact but an attack requirement (AT:P) of adversarial positioning on the network path between the Netmaker server and its mail relay. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with the ability to intercept traffic between the Netmaker server and its SMTP relay - for example, by ARP-spoofing on a shared cloud segment or controlling a compromised upstream router - presents a forged TLS certificate during the SMTP handshake. Netmaker accepts it without verification, and the attacker reads the plaintext email stream. …
Remediation The upstream development branch has removed the hardcoded InsecureSkipVerify=true setting, indicating a patch is in preparation; a released fixed version has not been independently confirmed at time of analysis - monitor https://github.com/gravitl/netmaker/releases and https://github.com/gravitl/netmaker/issues/4062 for a tagged release. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: audit your mail relay configuration and network path to confirm whether SMTP traffic traverses any untrusted network segments; immediately implement network segmentation to isolate mail traffic to an internal relay only if operationally feasible. …
