Description
Roundcube Webmail versions before 1.6.20 and 1.7.x before 1.7.5 have an improper authentication vulnerability affecting multi-host installations. The flaw allows a user logging in with an alias address to be authenticated as a different user on another IMAP host due to insufficient qualification of the alias lookup by IMAP host. This issue was fixed upstream by qualifying alias logins by IMAP host.
