Does this affect you?

It affects mailcow-dockerized. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

mailcow: dockerized is an open source groupware/email suite based on docker. In versions prior to 2026-03b, no administrator verification takes place when deleting Forwarding Hosts with `/api/v1/delete/fwdhost`. Any authenticated user can call this API. Checks are only applied for edit/add actions, but deletion can still significantly disrupt the mail service. Version 2026-03b fixes the vulnerability.
