Identity spoofing via mismatched PGP key UIDs
Published Apr 2, 2026 · Updated Apr 2, 2026
Improper input validation in SEPPmail Secure Email Gateway before 15.0.3 allows remote authenticated users to upload PGP keys with mismatched UIDs. The PGP-key upload path accepts a key when its UID does not match the uploader's email address, binding identity metadata without enforcing that relationship. An authenticated gateway account and a crafted key are required; the mismatch enables a key to be presented under an email identity it does not own.
