Descriptions

Dovecot before 2.3.15 allows ../ Path Traversal. An attacker with access to the local filesystem can trick OAuth2 authentication into using an HS256 validation key from an attacker-controlled location. This occurs during use of local JWT validation with the posix fs driver.

Dovecot versiones anteriores a 2.3.15, permite un Salto de Ruta ../. Un atacante con acceso al sistema de archivos local puede engañar a la autenticación OAuth2 en usar una clave de comprobación HS256 desde una ubicación controlada por el atacante. Esto ocurre durante el uso de la comprobación JWT local con el controlador posix fs
