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
MailEnable versions prior to 10.54 contain a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the FieldBcc parameter of /Mondo/lang/sys/Forms/AddressBook.aspx. The FieldBcc value is not properly sanitized when processed via a GET request and is reflected inside a <script> block in the JavaScript variable var BCCFieldProvided. By supplying a crafted payload that terminates the existing LoadCurAddresses() function, inserts attacker-controlled script, and comments out remaining code, a remote attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim’s browser during normal email composition. Successful exploitation can redirect victims to malicious sites, steal non-HttpOnly cookies, inject arbitrary HTML or CSS, and perform actions as the authenticated user.

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

MailEnable versions prior to 10.54 have a reflected XSS vulnerability in /Mondo/lang/sys/Forms/AddressBook.aspx. The FieldBcc GET parameter is not sanitized and is directly reflected inside a <script> block as the var BCCFieldProvided value, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript by terminating the existing LoadCurAddresses() function and commenting out remaining code.

MitigationUpgrade to MailEnable version 10.54 or later. As a temporary workaround, disable or restrict access to the AddressBook.aspx page until the patch can be applied.

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. Confirm MailEnable installation
    Check if MailEnable is installed on the system by looking for the MailEnable installation directory (commonly at C:\Program Files\MailEnable or C:\Program Files (x86)\MailEnable) or check running services for MailEnable services.
    Affected if MailEnable is installed on the server.
  2. Identify installed MailEnable version
    Locate the MailEnable version information. This is typically found in the MailEnable administration GUI under 'About' or in registry keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MailEnable or within the installation directory in version files.
    Affected if The installed version is any version prior to 10.54.
  3. Verify vulnerable endpoint exists
    Check if the file AddressBook.aspx exists in the /Mondo/lang/sys/Forms/ path of the MailEnable web installation. This is typically under the MailEnable web server root directory.
    Affected if The AddressBook.aspx file exists and is accessible via the web server.
  4. Check FieldBcc parameter handling
    Send a test request to /Mondo/lang/sys/Forms/AddressBook.aspx with a crafted FieldBcc parameter (e.g., FieldBcc=</script><script>alert(1)</script>) and inspect the response to verify if the value is reflected without proper HTML encoding.
    Affected if The FieldBcc GET parameter value is reflected in the response without HTML encoding inside the <script> block as BCCFieldProvided.

The server is affected if MailEnable versions prior to 10.54 are installed and the AddressBook.aspx page is accessible with unescaped reflection of the FieldBcc parameter.
