# Zimbra Collaboration: forged shared-file entries planted in other users' mailboxes

Zimbra Collaboration Suite lets an authenticated user insert fake shared-file records into another local account's mailbox through the FileSharedWithMeRequest endpoint. The request skips delegated-account checks and does not verify that a share exists, so an attacker can plant entries that look like they came from a real user.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Confirm the Zimbra Collaboration version with `zmcontrol -v` on the mail server; versions 10.1.16 and 10.1.20 are listed as affected.
- unknown for other checks; the sources do not describe log entries or config flags to inspect.

## Fix

- Zimbra Collaboration: move to a fixed release from the vendor; the sources do not name the fixed version.
- unknown for interim mitigations; the sources do not say.

## From the sources

A cross-account authorization vulnerability in Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) allows an authenticated user to insert forged shared-file records into another user's mailbox through FileSharedWithMeRequest. The request bypasses delegated-account authorization and accepts attacker-selected file metadata, owner identifiers and declared sizes without validating a corresponding document share. An attacker can plant entries attributed to another real local account without that account sharing a document. No victim interaction is required. ZCS 10.1.16 and 10.1.20 are affected.
