Collaboration Cross-site Scripting

An issue was discovered in Zimbra Collaboration (ZCS) 9.0. XSS can occur via the onerror attribute of an IMG element, leading to information disclosure. (2022-10-12, CVE-2022-41348)

In Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) 8.8.15, /h/search?action=voicemail&action=listen accepts a phone parameter that is vulnerable to Reflected XSS. This allows executing arbitrary JavaScript on the victim's machine. (2022-10-12, CVE-2022-41350)

In Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) 8.8.15, at the URL /h/calendar, one can trigger XSS by adding JavaScript code to the view parameter and changing the value of the uncheck parameter to a string (instead of default value of 10). (2022-10-12, CVE-2022-41351)

In Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) 8.8.15, the URL at /h/compose accepts an attachUrl parameter that is vulnerable to Reflected XSS. This allows executing arbitrary JavaScript on the victim's machine. (2022-10-12, CVE-2022-41349)

In Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) 8.8.15, the URL at /h/search?action accepts parameters called extra, title, and onload that are partially sanitised and lead to reflected XSS that allows executing arbitrary JavaScript on the victim's machine. (2022-08-12, CVE-2022-37044)

A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the /public/launchNewWindow.jsp component of Zimbra Collaboration (aka ZCS) 9.0 allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary web script or HTML via request parameters. (2022-04-21, CVE-2022-27926)

An issue was discovered in the Calendar feature in Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.8.x before 8.8.15 patch 30 (update 1), as exploited in the wild starting in December 2021. An attacker could place HTML containing executable JavaScript inside element attributes. This markup becomes unescaped, causing arbitrary markup to be injected into the document. (2022-02-09, CVE-2022-24682)

An issue was discovered in Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.8 before 8.8.15 Patch 23 and 9.0 before 9.0.0 Patch 16. An XSS vulnerability exists in the login component of Zimbra Web Client, in which an attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript by adding executable JavaScript to the loginErrorCode parameter of the login url. (2021-07-02, CVE-2021-35207)

An issue was discovered in ZmMailMsgView.js in the Calendar Invite component in Zimbra Collaboration Suite 8.8.x before 8.8.15 Patch 23. An attacker could place HTML containing executable JavaScript inside element attributes. This markup becomes unescaped, causing arbitrary markup to be injected into the document. (2021-07-02, CVE-2021-35208)

Cross site scripting is an attack where a web page executes code that is injected by an adversary. It usually appears, when users input is presented. This attack can be used to impersonate a user, take over control of the session, or even steal API keys.

The attack can be executed e.g. when you application injects the request parameter directly into the HTML code of the page returned to the user:

https://server.com/confirmation?message=Transaction+Complete

what results in:

<span>Confirmation: Transaction Complete</span>

In that case the message can be modified to become a valid Javascript code, e.g.:

https://server.com/confirmation?message=<script>dangerous javascript code here</script>

and it will be executed locally by the user's browser with full access to the user's personal application/browser data:

<span>Confirmation: <script>dangerous javascript code here</script></span>
