CVE-2026-107572— Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity in hMailServer

Quick assessment

Affected
Progressive Robot Ltd hMailServer
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Progressive Robot 指出 hMailServer 6.2.24 至 6.3.5 版本中 Sieve 过滤器评估存在效率低下的问题。经过身份验证的账户持有者可以利用其自身配置的过滤器,导致邮件服务不可用。 具体而言, 模式匹配采用回溯递归方式实现,其执行时间随匹配值的长度与通配符数量的乘积呈指数级增长。例如,模式 在匹配 800 个字符的长度时耗时 44 秒;此外, 指令在删除头部字段时逐一逐个移除,导致当删除包含大量相同名称字段的消息头部时,其时间复杂度为 O(N^2),例如删除 80,000 个字

Vulnerability Title
Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity in hMailServer
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Inefficient complexity in the Sieve filter evaluation of Progressive Robot hMailServer 6.2.24 through 6.3.5 allows an authenticated account holder to make the mail services unavailable with their own filter. A ':matches' pattern was matched by a backtracking descent whose time grew with the matched value's length raised to the number of wildcards, so a pattern such as '*a*a*a*b' over 800 characters took 44 seconds; and 'deleteheader' erased the fields it removed one at a time, so removing many fields of one name over a message's header cost O(N^2) (80,000 fields took 18.8 seconds). Sieve filters run on the small, shared delivery thread pool, so an account holder whose active script does this, fed a few messages they can send themselves, empties the pool and stops delivery for the whole server. The script is the account holder's own and cannot be set for another user.
