Exploitation Conditions

The fix is delivered in Microsoft Outlook for iOS 5.2617.1; all versions from 1.0.0 up to (but not including) 5.2617.1 are listed as affected by EUVD. The published CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) implies no authentication, no user interaction, and default-configuration exploitability, but the available sources do not describe the specific feature, protocol, or input that triggers the command injection, so the precise prerequisite cannot be stated with confidence. A key limiting/uncertainty factor is the product discrepancy: the Description attributes the flaw to 'M365 Copilot' while all structured metadata points to Outlook for iOS - defenders should confirm which component is actually affected with Microsoft MSRC before assessing exposure. Impact is confined to integrity/tampering (C:N/A:N).

Impact

The signals are broadly consistent and point to a moderate, non-urgent priority rather than an active threat. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated issue, but impact is integrity-only (C:N/I:H/A:N) - tampering, with no confidentiality or availability loss - which caps the base score at 7.5. Exploitation signals all point low: EPSS is 0.04% (14th percentile), SSVC reports Exploitation: none, Automatable: no, and only partial Technical Impact, and there is no CISA KEV listing and no public exploit identified. The vuln.today decision label is this_week, i.e. patch on a normal cycle, not an emergency. A material data conflict must be flagged: the Description names 'M365 Copilot', but the CPE, EUVD affected-version list, and tags all identify 'Microsoft Outlook for iOS' (before 5.2617.1) - these are different products, so the true affected component should be confirmed with Microsoft/MSRC before scoping. In addition, an unauthenticated network command-injection with UI:N against what the metadata says is a mobile mail client is unusual; the sources do not describe the trigger, so the no-user-interaction claim cannot be independently corroborated here.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote, unauthenticated attacker supplies crafted input that the affected application processes over the network, injecting special command elements (CWE-77) to tamper with integrity-protected data or behavior. Because the CVSS vector reports no privileges and no user interaction, the attacker needs no account or victim action per the published metrics, though the sources do not describe exactly how the flaw is triggered. No public exploit has been identified at the time of analysis, and EPSS/SSVC both indicate exploitation is currently unlikely.

AnalysisAIv2 – Oct 26, 2026

Command injection in Microsoft Outlook for iOS before 5.2617.1 can let remote unauthenticated attackers tamper with data over the network; the CVSS 3.1 vector rates integrity impact high and confidentiality/availability impact none. No public exploit was identified at time of analysis, EPSS is 0.04% (14th percentile), and SSVC records exploitation none with automatable no. The CVE description names M365 Copilot while CPE and EUVD metadata point to Outlook for iOS, so defenders should confirm the affected component with Microsoft MSRC.

Earlier versions of this analysis (1)
v1 Jul 23, 2026 - 21:02 CVSS 7.4

Tampering via command injection affects Microsoft Outlook for iOS versions 1.0.0 through 5.2617.0, where a network-based attacker can craft content that, once the victim interacts with it, injects and executes unauthorized commands to alter data integrity. The vulnerability carries CVSS 7.4 (integrity-only impact, scope changed) and requires user interaction; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low at 0.04%. Note a source conflict: the CVE description names 'M365 Copilot' while the CPE and EUVD affected-version data point specifically to Outlook for iOS.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: update Microsoft Outlook for iOS to 5.2617.1 or later, as the affected range is 1.0.0 up to but not including 5.2617.1 per ENISA EUVD-2026-29716. Microsoft's update guide is at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-42893. The available sources do not describe a specific workaround; because the CVE description names M365 Copilot while the CPE/EUVD metadata identify Outlook for iOS, confirm the affected component and required update with Microsoft MSRC before relying on version-only checks.

Technical ContextAI · show details

CWE-77 covers improper neutralization of special elements used in a command, commonly called command injection. The supplied CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N describes network reachability, low attack complexity, no required privileges, and no user interaction, with impact limited to integrity. The available sources do not describe the specific Outlook for iOS feature, protocol, or input that triggers the command injection, so the precise exploit prerequisite cannot be stated with confidence. CPE metadata identifies cpe:2.3:a:microsoft:microsoft_outlook_for_ios:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and ENISA EUVD-2026-29716 lists affected versions as 1.0.0 through versions earlier than 5.2617.1; SSVC rates automatable no and technical impact partial, and the vuln.today priority label is this_week.
