CVE-2026-47081 Details
Description
An issue was discovered in cyrus-imapd in Cyrus IMAP through 3.12.2. There is an XAPPLEPUSHSERVICE folder existence oracle and push hijack. An authenticated IMAP user could probe for the existence of arbitrary mailboxes on other users' accounts via the XAPPLEPUSHSERVICE command and then create Apple Push Notification Service notifications for new mail in those mailboxes to their own APNS device. This did not leak any data about the content of mailboxes. Instead, a "mailbox has changed" notice would be pushed when the mailbox modseq changed.
A vulnerability exists in Cyrus IMAP versions through 3.12.2, allowing an authenticated IMAP user to exploit the XAPPLEPUSHSERVICE command. This issue enables the user to probe for the existence of arbitrary mailboxes on other users' accounts and hijack Apple Push Notification Service (APNS) notifications. While the vulnerability does not leak any content from the mailboxes, it triggers a 'mailbox has changed' notice on the user's APNS device when the mailbox's modification sequence changes.
Users can upgrade to Cyrus IMAP version 3.12.3, which addresses this vulnerability.
