Description |
| 38 |
=========== |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
Ulf Harnhammar, Secunia Research discovered that the "frame" and |
| 41 |
"frameset" HTML tags are not properly filtered out. He also reported |
| 42 |
that certain HTTP requests are executed without being checked. |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
Impact |
| 45 |
====== |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted HTML |
| 48 |
e-mail, possibly resulting in the deletion of arbitrary e-mail |
| 49 |
messages. |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Workaround |
| 52 |
========== |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Resolution |
| 57 |
========== |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
All Horde IMP users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
# emerge --sync |
| 62 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/horde-imp-4.1.6" |
| 63 |
