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.

- To exploit it, no account is needed.
