Synopsis
========
eGroupWare is affected by several SQL injection and cross-site
scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities.
Background
==========
eGroupWare is a suite of web-based group applications including
calendar, address book, messenger and email.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 www-apps/egroupware < 1.0.0.007 >= 1.0.0.007
Description
===========
Multiple SQL injection and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities have
been found in several eGroupWare modules.
Impact
======
An attacker could possibly use the SQL injection vulnerabilites to gain
information from the database. Furthermore the cross-site scripting
issues give an attacker the ability to inject and execute malicious
script code or to steal cookie based authentication credentials,
potentially compromising the victim's browser.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All eGroupWare users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/egroupware-1.0.0.007"
