Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Unauthenticated reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) exists in Zarafa Webapp 2.0.1.47791 and earlier. NOTE: this is a discontinued product. The issue was fixed in later Zarafa Webapp versions; however, some former Zarafa Webapp customers use the related Kopano product instead.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

Unauthenticated reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Zarafa Webapp 2.0.1.47791 and earlier allows attackers to inject malicious scripts via unsanitized input in HTTP parameters. This is a client-side attack requiring user interaction (e.g., clicking a crafted link).

MitigationSince Zarafa Webapp is discontinued, upgrade to patched versions if available, or migrate to Kopano as recommended. Implement WAF rules to filter XSS payloads and validate/sanitize all user inputs server-side.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Zarafa Webapp installation
    Check for Zarafa Webapp or Webaccess files on the server. Common paths include /usr/share/zarafa-webapp, /var/www/zarafa-webapp, or inspect web server configuration files (Apache/Nginx) for aliases pointing to Zarafa.
    Affected if Zarafa Webapp or Webaccess is installed and serving web content.
  2. Determine installed version
    Locate version information in the webapp installation directory. Check for version files, about pages, or the startup/debug output. The version may be displayed in the web interface login page source or in configuration files.
    Affected if Installed version is 7.2.0-48204 or earlier, or version 2.0.1.47791 or earlier (different version numbering schemes).
  3. Verify web interface is accessible
    Confirm the Zarafa web interface HTTP/HTTPS endpoints are reachable. Test access to common paths such as /webapp, /zarafawebapp, or the root URL if configured as the default vhost.
    Affected if The Zarafa Webapp web interface is exposed and accessible over the network.
  4. Check for unsanitized HTTP parameter handling
    Review web server logs and application logs for unusual query parameters in requests to Zarafa endpoints. Examine if user-supplied input in URL parameters is reflected in responses without encoding.
    Affected if HTTP parameters are being processed and reflected in responses without sanitization.

A user is affected if Zarafa Webapp or Webaccess is installed with a version at or below 7.2.0-48204 (or 2.0.1.47791) and the web interface is accessible, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts via crafted URLs.
