Description Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-09-24 15:26:55 UTC
CVE-2008-4182 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-4182):
  Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in imp/test.php in Horde
  Turba Contact Manager H3 2.2.1, and possibly other Horde Project
  products, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or
  HTML via the User field in an IMAP session.
Comment 1 Gunnar Wrobel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-09-29 08:03:38 UTC
The test.php scripts are automatically handled with "chmod 000" within the horde.eclass. These scripts are not meant to be used by the outside world as they provide detailed server information so they are locked down by default. Opening this hole requires the user to actively change permissions on these files. I consider this irrelevant. Objections?
