1) Improper Neutralization of Argument Delimiters in a Command (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-12641)

CWE-ID: CWE-88 - Argument Injection or Modification

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists in rcube_image.php script when processing shell metacharacters in a configuration setting for im_convert_path or im_identify_path. A remote user with ability to change Roundcube Webmail configuration can inject and execute arbitrary OS commands.


2) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-13965)

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:A/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data when processing data passed via a malicious XML attachment because text/xml is among the allowed types for a preview. A remote attacker can open a specially crafted email and arbitrary JavaScript code will be executed in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


3) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-13964)

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via the username template object.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data passed via the "username" template object in "include/rcmail_output_html.php". A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.
