Description Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) PostJournal service version 8.8.15 contains a command injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary system commands by exploiting improper sanitization of the RCPT TO parameter via SMTP injection. Attackers can inject shell expansion syntax through the RCPT TO parameter to achieve remote code execution under the Zimbra service context. This CVE was rejected due to being a duplicate of CVE-2024-45519.

Type Values Removed Values Added
Description A critical security vulnerability exists in Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) PostJournal service version 8.8.15 that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary system commands via SMTP injection. The vulnerability is triggered through improper sanitization of the RCPT TO parameter, enabling command injection using shell expansion syntax (e.g., $(COMMAND)). Successful exploitation results in remote code execution under the Zimbra service context without requiring authentication. Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) PostJournal service version 8.8.15 contains a command injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary system commands by exploiting improper sanitization of the RCPT TO parameter via SMTP injection.
