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.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.\n\n## Package advisory (CVE-2026-57443)\n\nAffected packages:\n\n- `scbe-aethermoore >= 4.0.2, < 4.2.1`\n\nPatched in:\n\n- `scbe-aethermoore 4.2.1`\n\nSource: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-q986-4x7x-gx39","depth":"midnight","depthScore":53,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":41.3,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":12,"ransomware":0},"changes":[{"seq":212900,"id":"CVE-2026-57443","ts":1790707395786,"field":"exploit_available","old":"false","new":"true"}]}
