"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2025:1751913634 advisory.
- A flaw was found in the xdg-email component of xdg-utils-1.1.0-rc1 and newer. When handling mailto: URIs,
xdg-email allows attachments to be discreetly added via the URI when being passed to Thunderbird. An
attacker could potentially send a victim a URI that automatically attaches a sensitive file to a new
email. If a victim user does not notice that an attachment was added and sends the email, this could
result in sensitive information disclosure. It has been confirmed that the code behind this issue is in
xdg-email and not in Thunderbird. (CVE-2020-27748)
- When xdg-mail is configured to use thunderbird for mailto URLs, improper parsing of the URL can lead to
additional headers being passed to thunderbird that should not be included per RFC 2368. An attacker can
use this method to create a mailto URL that looks safe to users, but will actually attach files when
clicked. (CVE-2022-4055)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
