+ <description>
+ <p>
+ SquirrelMail fails to properly sanitize certain strings when decoding
+ specially-crafted headers.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="low">
+ <p>
+ By enticing a user to read a specially-crafted e-mail, an attacker can
+ execute arbitrary scripts running in the context of the victim's
+ browser. This could lead to a compromise of the user's webmail account,
+ cookie theft, etc.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All SquirrelMail users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=mail-client/squirrelmail-1.4.3a-r2"</code>
+ <p>
+ Note: Users with the vhosts USE flag set should manually use
+ webapp-config to finalize the update.
+ </p>
