DescriptionCVE.org

In Roundcube Webmail before 1.6.18 and 1.7.x before 1.7.3, mail search and LITERAL+ byte-count desynchronization could lead to information disclosure or privilege escalation via IMAP command injection.

AnalysisAI

IMAP command injection in Roundcube Webmail before 1.6.18 and 1.7.x before 1.7.3 enables authenticated remote attackers to disclose information or escalate privileges by exploiting a desynchronization between mail search operations and LITERAL+ byte-count handling. The flaw was reported by Zach Hanley of Horizon3.ai and is classified as CWE-77 (Command Injection), with the vendor releasing patched versions 1.6.18 and 1.7.3 on 2026-08-09. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Obtain valid Roundcube mailbox credentials
Delivery
Authenticate to Roundcube Webmail over network
Exploit
Craft search query with malformed LITERAL+ byte-count
Execution
Submit request to trigger desynchronized IMAP command construction
Persist
Injected IMAP commands processed by backend mail server
Impact
Read or manipulate other users' mailbox data

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to hold a valid authenticated Roundcube session, corresponding to any mailbox account hosted on the instance (PR:L per CVSS vector) - no administrative or elevated account is needed. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L presents a nuanced risk profile: the flaw is network-exploitable with no user interaction required, but demands both a valid authenticated session (PR:L) and specific IMAP server-side conditions around LITERAL+ support (AC:H), tempering immediate mass-exploitation concern. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with a valid low-privilege mailbox account on the Roundcube instance crafts a mail search query embedding malformed LITERAL+ byte-count boundaries, causing the IMAP server to interpret injected bytes as standalone IMAP commands issued under the webmail service account's authority. This allows the attacker to issue commands such as SELECT or FETCH against mailboxes belonging to other users, effectively escalating from their own mailbox scope to arbitrary mailbox access. …
Remediation Upgrade to Roundcube Webmail 1.6.18 (stable branch) or 1.7.3 (next branch), both released on 2026-08-09 and available at https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/tag/1.6.18 and https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/tag/1.7.3. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, audit all Roundcube Webmail installations to identify affected versions (pre-1.6.18 and 1.7.0-1.7.2). …
