An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2012-2578 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-2578/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-2578/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-2578","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-2578/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-2578","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j758-8r2q-fvx5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SmarterMail email server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script via malicious email bodies, potentially leading to code execution or account takeover.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"certcc","cpe":[{"product":"smartermail","vendor":"smartertools"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in SmarterMail 9.2 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via an e-mail message body with (1) a JavaScript alert function used in conjunction with the fromCharCode method, (2) a SCRIPT element, (3) a Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) expression property in the STYLE attribute of an arbitrary element, or (4) an innerHTML attribute within an XML document.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2012-08-08","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2012-08-08","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"20362","stars":null,"title":"smartermail free 9.2 - Persistent Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2578","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2012"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2579"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2577"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-09-19","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"SmarterTools SmarterMail Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type","id":"CVE-2025-52691","kev_date_added":"2026-01-26","published":"2025-12-29"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"SmarterTools SmarterMail Missing Authentication for Critical Function","id":"CVE-2026-24423","kev_date_added":"2026-02-05","published":"2026-01-23"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"SmarterTools SmarterMail Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel","id":"CVE-2026-23760","kev_date_added":"2026-01-26","published":"2026-01-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-32234","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-17"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-7214","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-24"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"SmarterTools SmarterMail \u003c Build 9560 Server Local File Inclusion via the /api/v1/report/summary/{type} API","id":"CVE-2026-7807","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-08"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"SmarterTools SmarterMail \u003c Build 9610 Cryptographic Weakness via Weak RNG","id":"CVE-2026-40514","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-27"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-17","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script via malicious email bodies, potentially leading to code execution or account takeover.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-2578/"}
