Roundcube Webmail 1.6.x < 1.6.18 / 1.7.x < 1.7.3 Multiple Vulnerabilities

critical Nessus Plugin ID 342614

Synopsis

An application running on the remote web server is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote web server is running Roundcube Webmail version 1.6.x prior to 1.6.18 or 1.7.x prior to 1.7.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- The cmd_learn driver of the markasjunk plugin is subject to remote code execution via crafted placeholder replacement values. This issue only affects Roundcube instances using the markasjunk plugin with its cmd_learn driver. (CVE-2026-74997)

- Mail search and LITERAL+ byte-count desynchronization could lead to information disclosure or privilege escalation via IMAP command injection. (CVE-2026-75002)

- Responses from the CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) proxy were not validated, which may result in information disclosure or XSS (cross-site scripting) via MIME sniffing. (CVE-2026-74998)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Roundcube Webmail version 1.6.18, 1.7.3 or later.
