Technical details

A stored XSS vulnerability in the Webmail component allows remote attackers to bypass SVG event-handler attribute sanitization and execute JavaScript in an authenticated user's session. The temporary-download endpoint lacks sufficient Content-Security-Policy sandbox protection, enabling script execution when crafted email attachments are opened. This grants attackers access to session credentials and mailbox data.
