CVE-2026-107567 Details
Description
Use of a less trusted source in the DKIM signing of Progressive Robot hMailServer 6.0.0 through 6.3.6 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to have mail they write signed with the DKIM key of a domain the server hosts, so that it passes DKIM and DMARC for that domain at other receivers. With DKIM signing enabled for a hosted domain, the server signed every message on its first delivery pass as the domain named in its From header, before local delivery, whatever the message's origin and without checking that its sender had authenticated. A sender anywhere could therefore send the server, as ordinary inbound mail, a message whose From is any address at such a domain, and the server signed it with that domain's key. Every copy the server then sent on to an address outside carried a valid signature aligned with the forged From, whatever the domain's DMARC policy: an account's forward, a mail rule's forward or copy, a Sieve redirect, an alias or distribution list with an outside member, the mirror copy, a managed-list or journal copy, or a message released from quarantine. A signed copy can also be re-sent to other recipients while the domain's key is unchanged. Exploitation needs DKIM signing to be enabled for the hosted domain (it is off until configured) and, for the forgery to leave the server, a forward, alias, list or rule that carries the domain's mail to an outside address. The signer likewise signed a message submitted over authenticated SMTP as whatever hosted domain its From header named, a header authenticated SMTP does not hold to the submitting account, so that an account of one hosted domain could have mail written in the name of another hosted domain signed with that domain's key; this mattered where the server holds signed-in senders to their own envelope addresses (SmtpAuthenticatedSenderCheck, off by default), as the signature was then the remaining way for such mail to pass the other domain's DMARC policy.
A vulnerability in Progressive Robot hMailServer versions 6.0.0 through 6.3.6 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to forge emails by exploiting the DKIM signing process. When DKIM signing is enabled for a hosted domain, the server automatically signs all incoming messages on their first delivery pass, regardless of the message's origin or sender authentication. This signed message can then be forwarded to external recipients, passing DKIM and DMARC checks, and potentially damaging the integrity and authenticity of the domain's email reputation.
Upgrade to hMailServer version 6.3.7, which addresses the vulnerability by ensuring that DKIM signing is only applied to messages that are legitimately authorized to be signed as a domain. This version is available through the Progressive Robot GitLab repository.
