Severity: important Affected versions:
- Apache James before 3.9.1 Description: In Apache James server prior version 3.9.1 relying on the SieveFileRepository incorect validation of file paths can result in path transversal, allowing to set arbitrary SIEVE scripts for other users. This allows a logged in attacker to set arbitrary SIEVE scripts for other users, resulting in denial of service or even traffic capture. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.9.1 which fixes this issue. Credit: n0mi1k Security (finder) References: https://james.apache.org/ https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-76168
