CVE-2026-57443
Published:September 25, 2026
Updated:October 09, 2026
SCBE-AETHERMOORE is a geometric AI governance and evaluation framework. Starting in version 4.0.2 and prior to version 4.2.1, the AetherBrowser API server ("scripts/aetherbrowser/api_server.py") exposes the "POST /api/ops/check-email" endpoint without any authentication. Any remote attacker can call this endpoint and trigger execution of the "email_reader.py" subprocess, which connects to configured ProtonMail or Gmail accounts via IMAP and returns email metadata (sender, subject, body snippet) in the JSON response. The server binds to "0.0.0.0:8100" by default with CORS set to "allow_origins=["*"]", making it reachable from any network or browser origin. Version 4.2.1 patches the issue.
