Internal email spoofing via unchecked recipient field
Published May 20, 2026 · Updated May 20, 2026
Email spoofing in Mesalvo Meona client and server components allows local users to send messages to arbitrary email addresses. The launcher sends serialized Hessian feedback objects over HTTP, and the server accepts a modified recipient field without checking it against the hardcoded address. Client Launcher 19.06.2020 15:11:49 and earlier and Server 2025.04 5+323020 and earlier are affected; low-privilege application access is required.
