Technical details

A cross-site scripting vulnerability in the password plugin occurs because error text from password drivers is concatenated into user-facing HTML without HTML entity encoding. An attacker able to influence the backend error response (e.g., via DirectAdmin API) can inject arbitrary JavaScript. The vulnerability affects versions before 1.6.20 and 1.7.x before 1.7.5, and is fixed by escaping the driver message before display.

Affected products

Roundcube Webmail before 1.6.20, 1.7.x before 1.7.5
