Debian DLA-537-1 : roundcube security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 91904

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Roundcube, a webmail solution for IMAP servers, was susceptible to cross-site-scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities when handling SVG images.
When right-clicking on the download link of an attached image, it was possible that embedded JavaScript could be executed in a separate Tab.

The update disables displaying of SVG images in e-mails and TABS.
Downloading attachments is still possible. This security update also mitigates against other ways to exploit this issue in SVG images.
(CVE-2016-4068)

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 0.7.2-9+deb7u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your roundcube packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
