Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Inefficient regular expression complexity (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-106454)

CWE-ID: CWE-1333 - Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity

CVSSv4: 5.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to inefficient regular expression complexity in the wildcardToRegexp() function in twisted/mail/imap4.py when processing IMAP wildcard patterns in LIST or LSUB commands. A remote user can send a specially crafted quoted pattern string containing catastrophic-backtracking regex syntax to cause a denial of service.

Because the server uses a cooperative single-threaded reactor, a blocking regex match can freeze all I/O on the server for the duration of the match.
