In Zimbra Collaboration Suite through 9.0 and 8.8.15, an attacker (who has initial user access to a Zimbra server instance) can execute commands as root by passing one of JVM arguments, leading to local privilege escalation (LPE).
The product constructs all or part of a command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended command when it is sent to a downstream component.
