CVE-2026-93630: Zimbra Collaboration Suite hostname canonicalization in email sanitizer

CVE-2026-93630 · Severity: medium · CVSS 4.3 · Published 2026-10-23

Zimbra Collaboration Suite is an enterprise email and collaboration platform that stores sensitive communications and user identities. A vulnerability in its email HTML sanitizer allows an attacker to craft a malicious email that, when opened and a form is submitted by the recipient, sends authenticated requests to the Zimbra server using the victim's login session. This could enable account takeover, data theft, or unauthorized actions if the target endpoint lacks additional CSRF protections.

Technologies: Zimbra Collaboration Suite. Vendors: Zimbra.

Technical details

A hostname canonicalization flaw in DefangFilter and OWASP ActionAttributePolicy allows percent-encoded hostnames to bypass form-action validation while the browser canonicalizes them to the legitimate Zimbra origin during form submission. An unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted email with a malicious form targeting a percent-encoded Zimbra hostname; when the recipient opens it in Classic and submits the form, the browser resolves it to the real host and sends the request with the recipient's authentication cookie. The vulnerability does not bypass CSRF tokens, so exploitation requires a state-changing endpoint without that protection.
