CVE-2024-37383
Roundcube
CVE-2024-37383 is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting Roundcube Webmail. Versions prior to 1.5.7 and 1.6.x before 1.6.7 are susceptible. The vulnerability stems from insufficient sanitization of SVG animate attributes, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts into user interfaces. This XSS vulnerability can be triggered by exploiting SVG attributes.
Given an SVRS of 58, while not critical, this vulnerability requires attention. Successful exploitation could lead to session hijacking, sensitive data theft, or defacement of the webmail interface. The presence of active exploits and its inclusion in the CISA KEV catalog further emphasizes the need to patch to prevent potential harm. Upgrade Roundcube Webmail to version 1.5.7 or 1.6.7 or later to mitigate this risk.
