CVE-2026-100389 is a critical remote code execution vulnerability in GestSup versions before 3.2.61, allowing unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending emails with malicious attachments.
- Unauthenticated attackers can execute arbitrary code
- Potential for lateral movement and further exploitation
- Requires immediate attention to prevent exploitation
- Verification of GestSup version and patch level is necessary
Technical summary
The vulnerability exists in the basic IMAP connector's attachment handling in GestSup versions before 3.2.61. Unauthenticated attackers can send emails with PHP attachments to monitored mailboxes, which are written to the web-accessible upload/ticket directory and executed when accessed. This allows for arbitrary code execution, posing a critical risk to GestSup installations. Immediate attention is required to assess exposure and apply patches or mitigations. The vulnerability's impact includes potential lateral movement and further exploitation, emphasizing the need for prompt verification of GestSup version and patch level.
Defensive priority
Immediate attention is required to assess exposure and apply patches or mitigations.
Recommended defensive actions
- Assess exposure by checking if GestSup versions before 3.2.61 are in use
- Apply patches or updates to GestSup to version 3.2.61 or later
- Restrict access to the upload/ticket directory
- Monitor for suspicious email activity and attachments
- Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
- Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
- Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
Evidence notes
The CVE record and NVD entry provide details on the vulnerability in GestSup versions before 3.2.61, but additional information on affected versions, remediation, and verification steps for defenders is limited. Further review of GestSup documentation and security advisories is recommended to understand the full scope of the vulnerability and necessary mitigations.
