Summary
MDaemon 9.0.5, 9.0.6, 9.51, and 9.53, and possibly other versions, installs the MDaemon application folder with insecure permissions (Users create files/directories), which allows local users to execute arbitrary code by creating malicious RASAPI32.DLL or MPRAPI.DLL libraries in the MDaemon\APP folder, which is an untrusted search path element due to insecure permissions.
Exploit prediction
0.40% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 34% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-08).
