Fixed in versions 1.6.16 and 1.7.1 per vendor advisory published 2026-05-24. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated Roundcube user account (confirmed by PR:L in the CVSS vector). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS score of 4.4 (Medium) accurately reflects a constrained attack. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with valid Roundcube credentials on an instance with shared mailbox access composes a draft message and injects a JavaScript or CSS payload (e.g., a cookie-stealing script or UI redress element) into the subject field, then saves it to a shared mailbox folder. When a co-user of that shared mailbox triggers the draft restore dialog - either deliberately or through normal draft management - the unsanitized subject content renders in their browser, executing the attacker's payload within their authenticated session context. …
Remediation The primary fix is to upgrade to Roundcube Webmail 1.6.16 (for 1.6.x deployments) or 1.7.1 (for 1.7.x deployments), both released 2026-05-24 and available at https://roundcube.net/news/2026/05/24/security-updates-1.6.16-and-1.7.1 and the respective GitHub release tags https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/tag/1.6.16 and https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/tag/1.7.1. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
