Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVE-2025-34425

Medium
5.3/10

Summary

MailEnable versions prior to 10.54 contain a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the WindowContext parameter of /Mondo/lang/sys/Forms/MAI/compose.aspx. The WindowContext value is not properly sanitized when processed via a GET request and is reflected within a <script> context in the JavaScript variable window.location, allowing an attacker to break out of the existing script and inject arbitrary JavaScript. A remote attacker can supply a crafted payload that terminates the existing ProcessContextSwitchResult() function, inserts attacker-controlled script, and comments out remaining code, leading to script execution in a victim’s browser when the victim visits a malicious link or attempts to send an email. Successful exploitation can redirect victims to malicious sites, steal non-HttpOnly cookies, inject arbitrary HTML or CSS, and perform actions as the authenticated user.

CWE-79 - Cross Site Scripting

Cross-Site Scripting, commonly referred to as XSS, is the most dominant class of vulnerabilities. It allows an attacker to inject malicious code into a pregnable web application and victimize its users. The exploitation of such a weakness can cause severe issues such as account takeover, and sensitive data exfiltration. Because of the prevalence of XSS vulnerabilities and their high rate of exploitation, it has remained in the OWASP top 10 vulnerabilities for years.
