Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in fetchmailprefs.php in Horde IMP before 4.3.8, and Horde Groupware Webmail Edition before 1.2.7, allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) username (aka fmusername), (2) password (aka fmpassword), or (3) server (aka fmserver) field in a fetchmail_prefs_save action, related to the Fetchmail configuration, a different issue than CVE-2010-3695. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes multiple cross-site scripting flaws in older Horde webmail components. An attacker could place script or HTML into Fetchmail configuration fields, creating risk of browser-side compromise for users who view affected pages. The sources do not show active exploitation or provide a CVSS score. Exposure is likely limited to organizations still running legacy Horde IMP or Horde Groupware Webmail Edition with the Fetchmail preferences interface reachable by users or attackers. Internet-facing webmail increases business impact because successful XSS can target sessions, credentials, and mail content. Treat this as a legacy webmail hygiene issue with moderate urgency. It is not documented as actively exploited in the provided sources, but exposed old Horde webmail can put user sessions and mailbox data at risk. Confirm whether the product exists in the environment first. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Horde IMP to 4.3.8 or later if still deployed.; Upgrade Horde Groupware Webmail Edition to 1.2.7 or later if still deployed.; Restrict access to legacy Horde webmail until version status is confirmed..
