What is CVE-2024-45510?

CVE-2024-45510 is a medium-severity cross-site scripting vulnerability in Synacor Zimbra Collaboration Suite, published on 20 Nov 2024. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

An issue was discovered in Zimbra Collaboration (ZCS) through 10.0. Zimbra Webmail (Modern UI) is vulnerable to a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack due to improper sanitization of user input. This allows an attacker to inject malicious code into specific fields of an e-mail message. When the victim adds the attacker to their contacts, the malicious code is stored and executed when viewing the contact list. This can lead to unauthorized actions such as arbitrary mail sending, mailbox exfiltration, profile picture alteration, and other malicious actions. Proper sanitization and escaping of input fields are necessary to mitigate this vulnerability.
