SmarterMail vulnerabilities

SmarterMail before build 9777 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability where JWT access and refresh tokens embed a role claim at issuance that is not revalidated against the account's current role when redeemed through POST /api/v1/auth/refresh-token. Attackers who capture a refresh token issued before an administrator demotion, or a demoted user whose session was not actively polling at the time of demotion, can replay the stale token to obtain a new access token retaining the higher-privilege role.

SmarterMail before build 9777 contains a stored mutation cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows remote attackers to inject executable script by placing payloads inside a <style> element nested within MathML foreign content (<math><mtext><mglyph>), which the custom HTML sanitizer treats as inert CDATA text but browsers reparse as live markup. Attackers can deliver a crafted calendar (iCal) message containing an <img src=x onerror=...> payload that executes automatically in the recipient's webmail session at /interface/message-iframe when the message is opened, enabling script execution and data exfiltration unconstrained by the interface's permissive Content-Security-Policy.

SmarterMail before build 9777 contains a remote code execution vulnerability that allows an attacker holding a SysAdmin-scoped access token to bypass the Volume Mount script-directory containment control by provisioning a new mail domain with an arbitrary FileStore root path inside the trusted Scripts directory via the domain-put endpoint. Attackers can disclose the Scripts path through the AddOrUpdateMount endpoint, clear the upload extension blacklist via the global-mail endpoint, then upload a malicious script through the ordinary mail file-storage upload API so that saving a CommandMount triggers RunScript before validation, resulting in a reverse shell executing as the SmarterMail service account with SYSTEM-level privileges.
