AI risk analysis
- Summary
- A cross-site scripting vulnerability in Progressive Robot hMailServer's webmail allows remote attackers to execute scripts in the context of a user's session when they open decrypted email attachments. This occurs because the webmail renders text/html attachments as documents from the webmail's origin, enabling script execution that can access the user's mailbox and perform actions through the REST API.
- Exploitability
- Exploitation requires sending an encrypted message containing a malicious HTML attachment to a target user, with the user opening it in a new tab; the attack is moderately difficult due to the need for user interaction but doesn't require authentication or privileged access.
- Blast radius
- The impact is significant as attackers could read all emails, send messages, and modify account settings on behalf of any user who opens the malicious attachment, particularly affecting users with REST API enabled.
- Detection
- No reliable host or network indicator is derivable from the published description.
- Prioritized remediation
- Disable the REST API in hMailServer configuration until a patch is available, or upgrade to version 6.3.6 which fixes this vulnerability.

NVD description
Cross-site scripting in the webmail of Progressive Robot hMailServer 6.3.2 through 6.3.5 allows a remote attacker who can send a user an encrypted message to run script in the webmail's origin with that user's session. When the webmail decrypted an S/MIME message (from 6.3.2) or an OpenPGP message (from 6.3.4) in the browser, it offered each decrypted attachment as a blob URL of the media type the message declared for it. A click saved the file, but if the user opened the attachment in a new tab, a part declared as text/html was rendered as a document of the webmail's origin and its script could read the mailbox, send mail and change the account through the REST API. The webmail is served only when the REST API is enabled, which it is not by default.
