SCA: security update for net-imap (GHSA-c4fp-cxrr-mj66)
low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 442840
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- Net::IMAP implements Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) client functionality in Ruby. Prior to 0.6.5
and 0.5.15, several Net::IMAP commands accept a raw string argument which is only validated to prevent
CRLF injection and then sent verbatim. If this string is derived from user-controlled input, an attacker
can force the next command to be absorbed as a continuation of the first command. This will cause the
first command to eventually fail, but also prevents it from returning until another command is sent (from
another thread). That other command will not return until the connection is closed. This vulnerability is
fixed in 0.6.5 and 0.5.15. (CVE-2026-47241)
Solution
Update the net-imap library and its related packages to version 0.5.15 or later.See Also
