Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
An issue was discovered in Roundcube Webmail before 1.5.14 and 1.6.14. The remote image blocking feature can be bypassed via SVG content (with animate attributes) 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 feature via SVG content containing animate attributes in email messages, leading to information disclosure or access control bypass. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.3 (moderate severity) with low attack complexity and no authentication required, though the confidentiality impact is limited.
Technical ContextAI
Roundcube Webmail implements a remote image blocking feature to prevent tracking and protect user privacy when displaying HTML emails. The vulnerability exists in the image filtering mechanism, which fails to properly sanitize SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) elements that contain animate attributes. SVG is an XML-based vector image format that can embed JavaScript-like behavior through animation directives, allowing attackers to circumvent content security controls. The root cause is classified under CWE-669 (Improper Access Control), indicating the filtering logic does not adequately enforce its intended security policy for all vector graphic formats. The vulnerability affects Roundcube Webmail versions before 1.5.14 (all 1.5.x versions) and before 1.6.14 (all 1.6.x versions up to 1.6.13), as identified via CPE cpe:2.3:a:roundcube:webmail.
RemediationAI
Organizations must upgrade Roundcube Webmail to version 1.5.14, 1.6.14, or later to remediate the vulnerability. Vendor-released patches are available as follows: version 1.5.14 (commit 1a63e01542bff42aaa71c00c4c279a09ef31f20c), version 1.6.14 (commit 39471343ee081ce1d31696c456a2c163462daae3), and version 1.7-rc5 (commit 82ab5eca7b332fce7a174b2b987f0957a66377cd). Administrators should apply the patch corresponding to their current version branch to restore proper SVG content filtering in the email display pipeline.
