Squirrelmail compromise

SquirrelMail 1.4.11 and 1.4.12, as distributed on sourceforge.net before 20071213, has been externally modified to create a Trojan Horse that introduces a PHP remote file inclusion vulnerability, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

ftpfile in the Vacation plugin 0.15 and earlier for Squirrelmail allows local users to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a command line argument.

Directory traversal vulnerability in ftpfile in the Vacation plugin 0.15 and earlier for Squirrelmail allows local users to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in a get request.

viewcert.php in the S/MIME plugin 0.4 and 0.5 for Squirrelmail allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the cert parameter.

security flaw

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in SquirrelMail 1.4.0 through 1.4.4 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unknown attack vectors in (1) the URL or (2) an e-mail message.

The G/PGP (GPG) Plugin 2.1 and earlier for Squirrelmail allow remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in (1) the fpr parameter to the deleteKey function in gpg_keyring.php, as called by (a) import_key_file.php, (b) import_key_text.php, and (c) keyring_main.php; and (2) the keyserver parameter to the gpg_recv_key function in gpg_key_functions.php, as called by gpg_options.php. NOTE: this issue may overlap CVE-2007-3636.

security flaw

options_identities.php in SquirrelMail 1.4.4 and earlier uses the extract function to process the $_POST variable, which allows remote attackers to modify or read the preferences of other users, conduct cross-site scripting XSS) attacks, and write arbitrary files.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in add.php in Address Add Plugin 1.9 and 2.0 for Squirrelmail allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the IMG tag.

security flaw

webmail.php in SquirrelMail 1.4.0 to 1.4.5 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web pages into the right frame via a URL in the right_frame parameter. NOTE: this has been called a cross-site scripting (XSS) issue, but it is different than what is normally identified as XSS.

security flaw

Interpretation conflict in the MagicHTML filter in SquirrelMail 1.4.0 to 1.4.5 allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via style sheet specifiers with invalid (1) "/*" and "*/" comments, or (2) a newline in a "url" specifier, which is processed by certain web browsers including Internet Explorer.

security flaw

CRLF injection vulnerability in SquirrelMail 1.4.0 to 1.4.5 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary IMAP commands via newline characters in the mailbox parameter of the sqimap_mailbox_select command, aka "IMAP injection."

security flaw

PHP remote file inclusion vulnerability in functions/plugin.php in SquirrelMail 1.4.6 and earlier, if register_globals is enabled and magic_quotes_gpc is disabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the plugins array parameter. NOTE: this issue has been disputed by third parties, who state that Squirrelmail provides prominent warnings to the administrator when register_globals is enabled. Since the varieties of administrator negligence are uncountable, perhaps this type of issue should not be included in CVE. However, the original developer has posted a security advisory, so there might be relevant real-world environments under which this vulnerability is applicable

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in search.php in SquirrelMail 1.5.1 and earlier, when register_globals is enabled, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTML via the mailbox parameter.

SquirrelMail 1.4.6 and earlier, with register_globals enabled, allows remote attackers to hijack cookies in src/redirect.php via unknown vectors. NOTE: while "cookie theft" is frequently associated with XSS, the vendor disclosure is too vague to be certain of this.

security flaw

Dynamic variable evaluation vulnerability in compose.php in SquirrelMail 1.4.0 to 1.4.7 allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary program variables and read or write the attachments and preferences of other users.

security flaw

PHP remote file inclusion vulnerability in webmail.php in SquirrelMail before 1.4.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by modifying a URL parameter to reference a URL on a remote web server that contains the code.

SquirrelMail 1.2.5 and earlier allows authenticated SquirrelMail users to execute arbitrary commands by modifying the THEME variable in a cookie.

security flaw

Cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in SquirrelMail 1.2.7 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute script as other web users via (1) addressbook.php, (2) options.php, (3) search.php, or (4) help.php.

security flaw

SquirrelMail 1.2.7 and earlier allows remote attackers to determine the absolute pathname of the options.php script via a malformed optpage file argument, which generates an error message when the file cannot be included in the script.

security flaw

An incomplete fix for a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in SquirrelMail 1.2.8 calls the strip_tags function on the PHP_SELF value but does not save the result back to that variable, leaving it open to cross-site scripting attacks.
