Smartertools 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 (such as DomainAdmin or SysAdmin) until natural token expiry.

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.

SmarterTools SmarterMail builds prior to 9560 contain a local file inclusion vulnerability in the /api/v1/report/summary/{type} API endpoint that allows authenticated users to read arbitrary .json files on the system. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability combined with weak encryption algorithms and hardcoded keys to decrypt and access stored passwords and 2FA secrets for all users.

SmarterTools SmarterMail before 9526 allows XSS via MAPI requests.
