Synopsis
========
The Horde Application Framework is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting
vulnerability which could lead to the compromise of the victim's
browser content.
Background
==========
The Horde Application Framework is a general-purpose web application
framework written in PHP, providing classes for handling preferences,
compression, browser detection, connection tracking, MIME, and more.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 www-apps/horde < 2.2.9 >= 2.2.9
Description
===========
The Horde Team reported a potential XSS vulnerability. Horde fails to
properly escape error messages which may lead to displaying unsanitized
error messages via Notification_Listener::getMessage()
Impact
======
By enticing a user to read a specially-crafted e-mail or using a
manipulated URL, an attacker can execute arbitrary scripts running in
the context of the victim's browser. This could lead to a compromise of
the user's browser content.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All Horde Application Framework users should upgrade to the latest
version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/horde-2.2.9"
