Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-16651)
CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote authenticated attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.
The weakness exists due to insufficient validation of file-based attachment plugins and _task=settings&_action=upload-display&_from=timezone requests. A remote attacker can modify the login form and submit it with valid credentials (username/password) of an email account, send a specially crafted HTTP request and gain unauthorized access to arbitrary files on the host's filesystem, including configuration files of Roundcube.
Note: the vulnerability is being actively exploited.
