CVE-2018-6882

Synacor Zimbra Collaboration Suite

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the ZmMailMsgView.getAttachmentLinkHtml function in Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) before 8.7 Patch 1 and 8.8.x before 8.8.7 might allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a Content-Location header in an email attachment.

Exploitation status

  • CISA has confirmed this is being exploited in the wild. That is an observation of real attacks, not a prediction.
  • It is known to have been used in ransomware campaigns.
  • US federal civilian agencies are required to remediate it by 2022-05-10. That deadline does not bind private companies, but it is a reasonable benchmark for how urgently CISA views it.
  • A vendor advisory or patch reference has been published.

Required action

Apply updates per vendor instructions.

CISA’s wording, unedited.

What the metrics mean

  • It is reachable over a network, without needing local access.
  • For an attacker who can reach it, no special conditions are needed to exploit it.
  • To exploit it, no account is needed.
  • Beyond that, someone has to be persuaded to take an action first.
