Synopsis
========
Insufficient checks in Horde may allow a remote attacker to bypass
security restrictions.
Background
==========
Horde IMP provides a web-based access to IMAP and POP3 mailboxes.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 www-apps/horde-imp < 4.1.6 >= 4.1.6
Description
===========
Ulf Harnhammar, Secunia Research discovered that the "frame" and
"frameset" HTML tags are not properly filtered out. He also reported
that certain HTTP requests are executed without being checked.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted HTML
e-mail, possibly resulting in the deletion of arbitrary e-mail
messages.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All Horde IMP users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/horde-imp-4.1.6"
