Impact
Authenticated attackers can run arbitrary IMAP commands on the backend mail server. They need valid user credentials to log into Roundcube Webmail first.
Root cause
Improper sanitization allows CRLF sequence injection inside the _uid parameter of the mail/headers and mail/viewsource actions.
Affected systems
Roundcube Webmail before 1.6.20 and 1.7.x before 1.7.5
CVSS v3.1 · CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:N
Fix & remediation
Upgrade Roundcube Webmail to version 1.6.20 or 1.7.5. No specific configuration workaround is provided; prioritize updating the application.
$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade roundcube-coreAI-suggested. Run it in staging first and check it against the vendor advisory. Why?
