    Package        : roundcube
    CVE ID         : CVE-2025-68460 CVE-2025-68461
    Debian Bug     : 1122899

    It was discovered that roundcube, a skinnable AJAX based webmail
    solution for IMAP servers, is prone to a cross-site scripting
    vulnerability via the animate tag in an SVG document and a information
    disclosure vulnerability in the HTML style sanitizer.

    For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed
    in version 1.6.5+dfsg-1+deb12u6.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.6.12+dfsg-0+deb13u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your roundcube packages.

    For the detailed security status of roundcube please refer to its
    security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/roundcube

    Further information about Debian Security Advisories, how to apply
    these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
