Medium [CVE-2026-56854] Authentication bypass due to unenforced source-address restrictions
The source-address critical option in the Permissions returned by an authentication callback was only enforced for the PublicKeyCallback and VerifiedPublicKeyCallback paths, extending the fix for CVE-2026-46595. Permissions returned by the PasswordCallback, KeyboardInteractiveCallback, NoClientAuthCallback, and GSSAPIWithMICConfig. AllowLogin callbacks were not validated against the client's remote address, so a source-address restriction set by those callbacks was silently ignored. The check is now applied to the Permissions returned by any authentication callback. A flaw was found in golang.org/x/crypto/ssh. The component failed to properly enforce source-address restrictions for several authentication methods, including password and keyboard-interactive callbacks. In applications that misuse the ServerConfig. PublicKeyCallback callback to make security relevant authorization decisions, an attacker with a valid key could bypass network-based access controls to gain additional privileges. This vulnerability severity is Important due to the requirement that an attacker already have a valid private key. Red Hat severity: Important — CVSS 6.8 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N). Weakness: CWE-346.
Medium [CVE-2026-82328] Gimp: heap out-of-bounds read in ico loader via unvalidated used_clrs palette count
A flaw was found in the file-ico plugin in GIMP. This incorrect validation leads to improper memory bounds checking, resulting in a heap out-of-bounds read. This issue can result in an application crash, leading to a denial of service or a limited information disclosure of heap memory contents. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker needs to convince a user to process a specially crafted ICO image with GIMP, reducing the likelihood of exploitation. Due to this reason, this flaw has been rated with a moderate severity. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.1 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-125. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: gimp.
Medium [CVE-2026-82327] out-of-bounds write in repo_write via unvalidated directory id from vertical/paged.solv filelist data
A flaw was found in libsolv, a dependency-resolution library used by RPM-based package managers such as dnf and zypper to work with.solv repository cache files. When libsolv rewrites a.solv cache file, it reads directory-id values from the file's compressed filelist data without validating that they fall within the expected range. A corrupted or specially crafted.solv cache file (for example, one left in a torn state after an unclean system shutdown) can cause an out-of-bounds memory write when a tool such as dnf, yum, or zypper next processes it. Successful exploitation is expected to result in a crash of the affected tool (denial of service); it is not expected to allow arbitrary code execution because the out-of-bounds write always stores a fixed, non-attacker-controlled value. The vulnerable code path is the vertical/paged (lazily loaded) filelist decoder used by repo_write(), reached only when a consumer (e.g. dnf/libdnf) rewrites a.solv cache after having loaded one containing SOLVABLE_FILELIST data stored with KEY_STORAGE_VERTICAL_OFFSET. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-129. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9; and 5 more.
Medium [CVE-2026-82324] Gimp: heap out-of-bounds reads in iff/ilbm loader from ham row size mismatch and nplanes=0
A flaw was found in the file-iff (IFF/ILBM) plugin in GIMP. This causes a row size mismatch that bypasses memory bounds checking, resulting in heap out-of-bounds reads. This issue can result in an application crash, leading to a denial of service or a limited information disclosure of heap memory contents. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker needs to convince a user to process a specially crafted IFF/ILBM image with GIMP, reducing the likelihood of exploitation. Due to this reason, this flaw has been rated with a moderate severity. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.1 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-125. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: gimp.
Medium [CVE-2026-15603] Log Forging via unescaped Unicode line separators
morgan is an HTTP request logger middleware for Node.js. In versions prior to 1.12.0, the internal helper that escapes log token values did not neutralize the Unicode line separator characters U+0085 (Next Line), U+2028 (Line Separator), and U+2029 (Paragraph Separator). An unauthenticated remote client can place these characters in an attacker-controlled log token, for example a Basic auth username surfaced through the remote-user token, so that Unicode-aware downstream log processing splits a single request log into multiple logical records. This is a log forging issue (CWE-117) and an incomplete-fix follow-up to CVE-2026-5078, which only addressed ASCII control characters. The issue is fixed in morgan 1.12.0, which extends the escaping set to cover these Unicode line separators. Upgrade to morgan 1.12.0 to remediate. This manipulation can cause downstream log processing systems to misinterpret a single log entry as multiple records, leading to log forging. Log forging allows an attacker to inject false entries into log files, potentially obscuring malicious activities or hindering incident response. Log forging flaw in `morgan` allows unauthenticated remote attackers to inject Unicode line separators into log tokens. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N). Weakness: CWE-117.
Medium [CVE-2026-73209] Denial of Service via crafted compressed data
An attacker that has valid credentials can send crafted compressed data that causes the affected process to exhaust its stack and crash. The affected process is terminated, which can cause degradation or denial of service for IMAP. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-770. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-52687] Denial of Service via IMAP compression memory exhaustion
An attacker that has valid credentials can select a compression algorithm for the IMAP connection whose decompression state requires a large amount of memory, and open several such connections. The memory limit of the process is reached with only a few connections, terminating the process and all connections it handles, which can cause degradation or denial of service for IMAP. Alternatively limit the number of connections handled by a single imap-login process, though this has a performance impact. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in dovecot. By opening several such connections, the attacker can exhaust the process's memory limit, leading to the termination of the process and all its connections. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-770. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-42395] Denial of Service via NUL byte in forwarding information
A host listed as a trusted proxy can send forwarding information containing a NUL byte, which crashes the login process on the following login attempt. The login process is terminated, which can cause degradation or denial of service for logins. Deployments that do not configure trusted proxies are not affected. Restrict the list of trusted proxy networks to hosts that are fully under your control. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-170. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-42392] Information disclosure via invalid IMAP URLFETCH command
An attacker that has valid credentials can send an invalid IMAP URLFETCH command, which causes uninitialized memory to be included in the error response returned to the client. Process memory contents can be disclosed to the client, which may include sensitive data. Disable the IMAP URLAUTH functionality. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 4.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N). Weakness: CWE-908. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-42008] Authentication bypass via trusted proxy forwarding
Forwarding information received from a host listed as a trusted proxy is not kept separate from Dovecot's own authentication fields, so a value sent by that host can be injected as an internal authentication field. Any host permitted to act as a trusted proxy can authenticate as any user without knowing that user's password. This affects deployments whose password database honours a field that permits authentication without a password. Deployments that do not configure trusted proxies are not affected. Restrict the list of trusted proxy networks to hosts that are fully under your control. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 4.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N). Weakness: CWE-349. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-40205] Authorization bypass via partially valid OAuth2 token
An attacker that holds an OAuth2 token granting only part of the required scopes can authenticate, because when more than one scope is required in the configuration, the remote token validation paths accept a token that carries only one of them, while the local token validation path correctly requires all of them. The configured authorization policy is not enforced, so a token that was granted only part of the required permissions is accepted where it should have been rejected. Use local token validation where tokens can be validated locally. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. This allows the attacker to authenticate with insufficient permissions, leading to a breach of integrity where the configured authorization policy is not properly enforced. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.9 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:N). Weakness: CWE-303. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-40017] Denial of Service via crafted IMAP message headers
An attacker that can send mail to a user can craft a message header whose values are chosen to collide in an internal hash table, which makes the IMAP THREAD command consume CPU disproportionate to the size of the message. This is a separate issue from CVE-2026-40014 and is not addressed by that fix. Whenever a mail client issues a THREAD command on the affected mailbox, this can cause degradation or denial of service for IMAP. Monitor system for abnormal CPU usage, kill the offending process and remove the offending message from the affected mailbox. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. This manipulation forces the IMAP THREAD command to consume excessive CPU resources, leading to degradation or a complete denial of service for the IMAP server. This can disrupt email services for affected users. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-770. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-40015] Denial of Service via malformed IMAP commands in imap-hibernate service
An attacker that has valid credentials can open many connections to the imap-hibernate service and send invalid commands, which can intermittently cause an out-of-bounds read and crash the process. The crash interrupts hibernated IMAP sessions handled by the affected process, which can cause degradation of service for IMAP. Disable IMAP hibernation. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 4.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L). Weakness: CWE-125. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-40014] Denial of Service via crafted IMAP THREAD command
An attacker that can send mail to a user can craft a message header that makes the IMAP THREAD command consume CPU disproportionate to the size of the message. When a mail client issues a THREAD command on the affected mailbox, this can cause degradation or denial of service for IMAP. Monitor system for abnormal CPU usage, kill the offending process and remove the offending message from the affected mailbox. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-606. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-40013] Denial of Service in ManageSieve service via crafted Sieve script
An attacker that has valid credentials can submit a Sieve script containing an extreme numeric literal, which causes an out-of-bounds write when the ManageSieve service compiles the script. This causes memory corruption and an observed crash of the ManageSieve process, resulting in denial of service for script management. This might be able to be used for remote code execution. Disable the ManageSieve service if users do not need remote Sieve script management. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. This action triggers an out-of-bounds write during script compilation, leading to memory corruption and a crash of the ManageSieve process. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 4.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L). Weakness: CWE-787. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-33607] Denial of Service via IMAP LIST command
An attacker that has valid credentials can use IMAP LIST command to consume CPU. This can cause degradation or denial of service for IMAP. Monitor system for abnormal CPU usage and kill the offending process and lock account. Alternatively install fixed version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 4.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L). Weakness: CWE-606. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-33606] Unauthorized mailbox modification via dsync command injection
Mail content stored by a user can be crafted so that it is interpreted as dsync protocol commands when an administrator later runs dsync with the stream protocol, for example during a migration. Injected commands can modify mailbox state on the destination during migration or replication, including internal mailbox attributes that a user should not be able to set directly. It can also cause dsync errors. Avoid running dsync with the stream protocol on mailboxes with untrusted content. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. This could lead to unauthorized data manipulation and potentially cause service disruptions. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.4 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L). Weakness: CWE-78. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Will not fix / out of support: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE. Affected products named by the advisory: Red Hat package: dovecot.
Medium [CVE-2026-33604] SMTP smuggling vulnerability allows spoofed email injection
An attacker that can get Dovecot to relay a message, for example through Sieve redirect or submission relay, can use a crafted line ending in the message body to bypass the outbound protection that prevents message content from being interpreted as SMTP commands. A downstream mail server that hasn't yet fixed the SMTP smuggling vulnerability can be tricked into treating part of the message body as new SMTP commands, allowing injection of spoofed email. This is the same vulnerability class as CVE-2023-51764 and CVE-2023-51766. Where you control the receiving mail servers, ensure they reject bare carriage returns in message data. Update to non-vulnerable version. No publicly available exploits are known. A flaw was found in Dovecot. A remote attacker can exploit this by crafting a message with a specific line ending. If Dovecot relays this message, it can bypass security protections, allowing the attacker to inject spoofed email into a vulnerable downstream mail server. This vulnerability is related to SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) smuggling. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.9 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N). Weakness: CWE-93. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.
Medium [CVE-2026-18393] Ffmpeg: ffmpeg: heap buffer overflow in tdsc_load_cursor via cur_fmt_mono cursor
A flaw was found in FFmpeg. The tdsc_load_cursor() function writes beyond the bounds of a heap-allocated buffer when processing crafted TDSC cursor data. A remote attacker could exploit this by supplying a specially crafted video file, potentially leading to a denial of service or arbitrary code execution. The ffmpeg package is not shipped in base Red Hat Enterprise Linux. It is available through EPEL, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI, and as a bundled dependency in Red Hat OpenShift AI container images. The vulnerable code resides in libavcodec (tdsc.c), which is compiled and shipped in all FFmpeg builds across these products. The TDSC decoder is present since FFmpeg's initial inclusion of the codec in 2015. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.4 (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H). Weakness: CWE-787. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI (RHEL AI) 3; Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI). Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE.
Medium [CVE-2026-80612] Drop skb metadata before LWT encapsulation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: lwtunnel: Drop skb metadata before LWT encapsulation skb metadata is meant for passing information between XDP and TC. It lives in the skb headroom, immediately before skb->data. LWT programs cannot access the __sk_buff->data_meta pseudo-pointer to metadata. However, LWT encapsulation prepends outer headers, moving skb->data back over the headroom where the metadata sits. On an RX-originated (forwarded) packet that still carries XDP metadata this goes wrong in two different ways, depending on the encap type: 1. Non-BPF LWT encaps (mpls, seg6, ioam6...) call skb_push()/skb_pull() and silently overwrite the metadata that sits in the headroom. 2) BPF LWT xmit calls bpf_skb_change_head(), which uses skb_data_move(). That helper expects metadata immediately before skb->data.
