Package : roundcube
Version : 1.6.5+dfsg-1+deb12u12
CVE ID : not yet available
Debian Bug : 1146838
Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Roundcube, a skinnable AJAX based
webmail solution for IMAP servers, which could result in cross-site scripting,
server-side request forgery, information disclosure, email header injection,
or privilege escalation.
Zach Hanley discovered that the CSS sanitizer was prone to declaration
smuggling via un-encoded ampersand emission, which may lead to remote
image blocking bypass or XSS.
The CSS sanitizer is prone to property injection via body `background`
attribute, which may lead to remote image blocking bypass or XSS.
The sendmail logic is prone to email header injection via bare CR in the
subject field, C-escape `\r` in the recipient display name, and/or
identity's organization field.
The attachment URL is prone to TNEF MIME tag injection, which may lead
to zero-click stored XSS.
Joshua Rogers discovered that the text/enriched part content in HTML
editor was prone to XSS.
Joshua Rogers discovered that the contact group membership actions
add/remove were prone to cross-user access.
The CSS sanitization fixes for CVE-2026-35540, CVE-2026-48843,
CVE-2026-62643 and CVE-2026-75006 were insufficient, allowing a
malicious embedded stylesheet in a text/html email to lead to SSRF or
information disclosure.
Wahab Khadir discovered that insufficient HTML/CSS sanitization may lead
to remote image blocking bypass or XSS via CSS escapes in FuncIRI
attributes.
Insufficient HTML/CSS sanitization may lead to remote image blocking
bypass or XSS via SVG SMIL src animation.
For Debian 12 bookworm, this problem has been fixed in version
1.6.5+dfsg-1+deb12u12.
We recommend that you upgrade your roundcube packages.
