What is CVE-2023-26490?

A vulnerability exists in the Mailcow email package, wherein the Sync Job feature may allow a malicious user with the necessary permissions to exploit a shell command injection flaw. This issue arises when user passwords are inadequately validated before being used in shell commands, granting potential shell access to the dovecot Docker container. While Mailcow's default account permissions do not include necessary access, users should immediately apply the provided fix from the March 2023 update or alternatively restrict Sync Job permissions for all mailbox users to mitigate this risk.
