The ACL plugin in Dovecot 1.2.x before 1.2.13 propagates INBOX ACLs to newly created mailboxes in certain configurations, which might allow remote attackers to read mailboxes that have unintended weak ACLs.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue can cause Dovecot mail servers to give newly created mailboxes weaker access controls than intended. In affected configurations, permissions from INBOX may carry over, potentially allowing remote users to read mailboxes they should not access. Exposure is most likely on legacy Dovecot 1.2.x mail servers before 1.2.13 that use the ACL plugin and configurations where INBOX ACLs influence newly created mailboxes. Treat this as a targeted legacy mail confidentiality risk. It is not supported by active-exploitation evidence in the supplied sources, but affected mail systems may expose sensitive email if ACLs are wrong. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Dovecot 1.2.x deployments to 1.2.13 or vendor-patched packages.; Review vendor advisories from Ubuntu, Mandriva, and SUSE for package-specific guidance.; Audit ACL plugin configuration for unintended INBOX ACL inheritance..
