Zinho's Security Advisory

Desc: Http Splitting leads to email account stealing
Product: SQWebmail
Risk: High

A dangerous http splitting attack can be taken against mailboxes that use Sqwebmail as web mail interface. Anyone can send a malformed link in the email body and stealing session cookie and passwords.

Proof of concept:
///
sqwebmail?redirect=%0d%0a%0d%0a[INJECT SCRIPT]

///

Vendor should patch this issue soon as anyone can attack a user directly.
