The version of IMP (Internet Mail Program) installed on the remote host is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input when a user uploads an attachment. An attacker can use a specially crafted request to inject arbitrary HTML and script code into a user's browser to be executed within the security context of the affected site.Note that Horde Groupware Webmail Edition is also affected as this bundle includes IMP.
Solution
Upgrade to IMP H4 5.0.24 / Groupware Webmail Edition 4.0.9 or later.See Also
