Out-of-bounds read in IMAP response parser
CVE-2026-92240 is fixed in 135 products on 3 platforms, first by Mozilla Thunderbird 156.0, released September 10, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Urgent.
A malicious or compromised IMAP server can trigger an out-of-bounds read in the IMAP response parser by sending an untagged '* ID' response, crashing Thunderbird. The affected parsing path is reachable before authentication. This vulnerability was fixed in Thunderbird 156, Thunderbird 140.16, and Thunderbird 153.3.
