Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
KDE Trojita version 0.7
Description
Man-in-the-middle attackers can create new folders because untagged responses from an IMAP server are accepted before STARTTLS.
Recommendations
For KDE Trojita version 0.7, consider disabling the acceptance of untagged responses from the IMAP server before STARTTLS as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to folder creation functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation.
