Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote user to overwrite other users' files within file_storage_path, cause persistent CSS injection, and potentially execute stored cross-site scripting.

The vulnerability exists due to externally controlled file paths and missing authorization in Group Office's email saveToFile action when saving messages through the raw filesystem class. A remote user can submit save_to_path with email-module access to overwrite storage files with attacker-controlled MIME messages, including customcss/style.css or customcss/javascript.js rendered globally, although MIME headers may prevent JavaScript execution.
