Subject: CVE-2026-74756: Apache James: WebAdmin exposed without
 authentication on official Docker default 

Severity: low 

Affected versions:

- Apache James before 3.9.1

Description:

Some docker-compose shipped by the project exposes by default Webadmin REST API publically without proper authentication setup.
Version 3.9.1 onward sets a random credential by default on unprotected webadmin endpoints to prevent this while retain convenience.
