Technical details

A vulnerability exists in the password plugin of Roundcube Webmail (versions before 1.6.17 and 1.7.x before 1.7.2) classified as authentication bypass by spoofing (CWE-290). The root cause is the improper handling of session-injected usernames within the plugin's drivers (such as LDAP and DirectAdmin). An attacker with low-privileged access could potentially manipulate session data to spoof a different username during password operations. This flaw can be exploited over the network, though it requires high complexity and user interaction, to achieve account takeover. The issue has been addressed in versions 1.6.17 and 1.7.2 by ensuring the username is correctly passed and validated through the save function and driver substitutes.
