Who should care

Organizations that run Roundcube Webmail, especially administrators responsible for email systems, hosted webmail services, and any environment where Roundcube is exposed to users or reachable from the internet. Security teams should also care if Roundcube is part of a managed service or shared hosting platform.

Technical summary

The vulnerability is described as a deserialization of untrusted data issue in Roundcube Webmail. The supplied corpus does not include deeper technical impact details, affected version ranges, or exploitation mechanics, but CISA’s KEV inclusion means this issue is considered actively exploited and should be prioritized for remediation based on vendor guidance.

Defensive priority

High. KEV inclusion and a CISA remediation deadline make this a near-term operational priority for exposure assessment, patching, and mitigation verification.

Recommended defensive actions

  • Review the Roundcube vendor security update notices linked in the CISA metadata for remediation guidance.
  • Apply vendor-recommended mitigations or updates as soon as possible.
  • If Roundcube is provided as a cloud or hosted service, follow applicable BOD 22-01 guidance.
  • If no effective mitigation is available, discontinue use of the product until a safe remedial path exists.
  • Confirm whether any internet-facing Roundcube deployments remain exposed and document remediation status before the KEV due date.

Evidence notes

The source corpus identifies CVE-2025-49113 as a Roundcube Webmail deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability and marks it as a CISA KEV entry. CISA metadata lists the date added as 2026-02-20 and the due date as 2026-03-13. The corpus also references Roundcube security update notices (1.6.11 and 1.5.10), but no version-impact details were provided in the supplied material, so this debrief avoids unsupported version claims.

Official resources

Publicly disclosed and included in CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog; the supplied corpus does not provide additional disclosure narrative beyond the KEV metadata and linked vendor update references.
