CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

Cypht versions prior to 2.12.2 are vulnerable to a cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw in the contacts module, allowing remote attackers to inject and execute arbitrary scripts through maliciously crafted email headers. This vulnerability arises from inadequate sanitization of angle brackets in the FROM email header, enabling exploitation when users access the Add Local Contacts feature. Organizations using Cypht should prioritize patching to mitigate potential security risks associated with this vulnerability.

Original NVD Description

Cypht before 2.12.2 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the contacts module that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary script content by embedding malicious payloads within angle brackets in the FROM email header. The sanitization logic removes only the first occurrence of each angle bracket character, leaving additional angle brackets intact, which attackers exploit by delivering a crafted email whose FROM header executes script in the victim's browser when the user opens the message and accesses the Add Local Contacts function.
