An issue was discovered in Roundcube Webmail before 1.5.14 and 1.6.14. The remote image blocking feature can be bypassed via a crafted background attribute of a BODY element in an e-mail message. This may lead to information disclosure or access-control bypass.
AnalysisAI
Roundcube Webmail before versions 1.5.14 and 1.6.14 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to bypass the remote image blocking security feature through a crafted background attribute in a BODY element of an email message, enabling information disclosure via tracking pixels or other image-based reconnaissance. The vulnerability affects all versions prior to 1.5.14 and 1.6.x versions before 1.6.14, with CVSS 5.3 (medium severity) reflecting the low confidentiality impact but lack of authentication requirements.

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Risk Assessment | This vulnerability presents moderate real-world risk aligned with its CVSS 5.3 score. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker sends a carefully crafted email message to a Roundcube user containing a BODY element with a malicious BACKGROUND attribute pointing to an attacker-controlled image server. When the user opens the email in Roundcube, despite the webmail client's remote image blocking feature being enabled, the BACKGROUND attribute bypass allows the browser to request the image from the attacker's server. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patches are available: upgrade Roundcube Webmail to version 1.5.14 or later for the 1.5.x branch, version 1.6.14 or later for the 1.6.x branch, or 1.7-rc5 or later for the development branch. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
