FAQ

Questions about CVE-2020-7796

What does this mean?

This bug is server-side request forgery (SSRF), which means the Zimbra server can be made to send network requests that it should not send. The advisory describes the risk as a potential one tied to a specific setup.Source: wiki.zimbra.com

Am I affected, and how do I check?

The advisory covers Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) versions before 8.8.15 Patch 7, and only when the WebEx zimlet is installed and zimlet JSP is enabled. To check the setup, look at whether the WebEx zimlet is installed and whether zimlet JSP is enabled on the server.Source: wiki.zimbra.com

What should I do about it?

Upgrade to ZCS 8.8.15 Patch 7 or later, which is the version the advisory names as the fix boundary. Until the upgrade is applied, the setup conditions in the advisory are the points to check.Source: wiki.zimbra.com

Is it being exploited?

Yes. CISA added it to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-02-17, which means it has evidence of attacks. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cisa.gov, cve.now feed data

What if there's no patch?

The checked facts do not include a workaround. The advisory ties the issue to two conditions, so removing the WebEx zimlet or disabling zimlet JSP would remove the setup it describes, but the facts do not confirm that this fully closes the issue.Source: wiki.zimbra.com
