Security readout for executives and security teams

Open WebMail versions including 2.52 and releases before May 12, 2006 had a cross-site scripting flaw. An attacker could place script or HTML in email header fields that the webmail interface displayed. Business risk is mainly compromise of users interacting with the vulnerable webmail UI. Exposure is likely limited to organizations still running legacy Open WebMail, especially OWM 2.52 or versions released before May 12, 2006. Internet-facing webmail deployments increase risk. Treat as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless Open WebMail remains internet-facing or business-critical. Prioritize removal or upgrade because unsupported webmail software can expose user sessions and sensitive mail content. Mitigation focus: Inventory Open WebMail deployments and record exact versions.; Upgrade to a vendor-supported release containing fixes after May 12, 2006.; If upgrade is unavailable, retire or isolate the Open WebMail service..
