The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200506-19 (SquirrelMail: Several XSS vulnerabilities)

SquirrelMail is vulnerable to several cross-site scripting issues,     most reported by Martijn Brinkers.

Impact :

By enticing a user to read a specially crafted e-mail or using a     manipulated URL, an attacker can execute arbitrary scripts running in     the context of the victim's browser. This could lead to a compromise of     the user's webmail account, cookie theft, etc.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
