    Package        : roundcube     Version        : 1.4.15+dfsg.1-1+deb11u9     CVE ID         : CVE-2026-48842 CVE-2026-48843 CVE-2026-48844 CVE-2026-48845                      CVE-2026-48846 CVE-2026-48847 CVE-2026-48848 CVE-2026-48849     Debian Bug     : 1132838 1137507

    Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Roundcube, a skinnable AJAX     based webmail solution for IMAP servers, which could result in     cross-site scripting, SQL injection, server-side request forgery,     information disclosure, code injection, or deletion of arbitrary files.

    CVE-2026-48842

        Pre-authentication SQL injection in `virtuser_query` plugin via         `preg_replace()` backslash escape bypass.

    CVE-2026-48843

       Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability via stylesheet links        to a specific local address URLs.  This issues stems from an        insufficient fix for CVE-2026-35540.

    CVE-2026-48844

        Code injection vulnerability via code evaluation support in LDAP's         `autovalues` option.  Code evaluation support has been removed in         this update.

    CVE-2026-48845

        Local/private URL fetch bypass when remote resources were not         allowed.  This allows attackers to bypass remote image blocking to         potentially bypass access control.

    CVE-2026-48846

        Bypass of remote image blocking via CSS `var()`.  This allows         attackers to bypass remote image blocking to track email open action         or potentially bypass access control.

    CVE-2026-48847

        Pre-authentication arbitrary file delete via redis/memcache session         poisoning bypass.

    CVE-2026-48848

        CSS injection bypass in HTML sanitizer via SVG `<animate         attributeName=style>`.

    CVE-2026-48849

        Stored XSS/HTML/CSS injection in subject field of the draft restore         dialog.
