## What is CVE-2026-93636?

CVE-2026-93636 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Synacor Zimbra Collaboration Suite, published on 23 Oct 2026. 

### Official description

An LDAP filter injection vulnerability in Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) allows an authenticated user to query otherwise unreturned attributes of calendar resources through SearchCalendarResourcesRequest. Zimbra escapes search values but inserts the supplied attribute names directly into LDAP filter expressions without validation. An attacker can inject additional conditions and use repeated matching queries to recover readable resource attributes such as internal mailbox hostnames and mail transport routes. The search remains restricted to calendar-resource objects and the LDAP service account's access rights. ZCS 10.1.16 and 10.1.21 are affected.

Weakness: CWE-90 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an LDAP Query)
