# CVE-2026-93639: Zimbra Collaboration Suite Missing Authorization in ConfigureZimlet Enables Delegated Administrator Privilege Escalation

- Also known as: EUVD-2026-108978, GHSA-Q3FJ-JG2R-PP4P
- Severity: CVSS 8.7 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=total
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2026-10-23 · Updated: 2026-10-28

## Summary

Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) is affected, where a delegated administrator with no full administrative rights can overwrite global Zimlet settings and add an attacker-controlled domain to the proxy allowlist. This can let an attacker run scripts under Zimbra's origin in a victim's browser, reading mailbox data and performing actions as that user, though the attack requires a delegated-admin account and a victim who opens a crafted link.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- Zimbra Zimbra Collaboration Suite: through 10.1.20

## Description

A missing authorization vulnerability in Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) allows a delegated administrator with no explicit administrative grants to overwrite global Zimlet configuration through ConfigureZimletRequest. The uploaded configuration can also add an attacker-controlled domain to the proxy allowlist of the default class of service. If a signed-in user in that class opens a crafted /service/proxy URL, Zimbra serves attacker-controlled HTML under its own origin. The resulting JavaScript can read mailbox data and perform authenticated actions as the victim. Exploitation requires a delegated-administrator account and access to the admin SOAP service; the browser compromise additionally requires the victim to open the crafted URL. ZCS 10.1.16 and 10.1.20 are affected.
