An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-42008 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Roundcube Webmail. 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-2024-42008/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42008/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-42008","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42008/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-42008","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2024-42008","GHSA-78jf-j6qx-c7j3","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-42008"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Roundcube webmail","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can steal and send victim emails via XSS in Roundcube webmail triggered by malicious email attachments.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"webmail","vendor":"roundcube"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"A Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in rcmail_action_mail_get-\u003erun() in Roundcube through 1.5.7 and 1.6.x through 1.6.7 allows a remote attacker to steal and send emails of a victim via a malicious e-mail attachment served with a dangerous Content-Type header.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2025-02-13","github_poc":3,"max_poc_stars":2,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2025-02-13T13:56:34Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/victoni/Roundcube-CVE-2024-42008-and-CVE-2024-42010-POC","stars":2,"title":"POC for Roundcube vulnerabilities CVE-2024-42008 and CVE-2024-42010"},{"date":"2025-05-26T00:31:36Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Foxer131/CVE-2024-42008-9-exploit","stars":0,"title":"The scripts in this repository are made to abuse CVE-2024-42008 and CVE-2024-42009.
