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
Cross-site scripting vulnerability exists in E-mail function of Cybozu Garoon 5.0.0 to 6.0.3, which may allow an attacker to reset arbitrary users’ passwords.

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 · moderate confidence

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the E-mail function of Cybozu Garoon versions 5.0.0 through 6.0.3 allows injection of malicious scripts. Successful exploitation can lead to manipulation of password reset flows, potentially enabling attackers to reset arbitrary user passwords.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of Cybozu Garoon; if no patch available, sanitize all email function inputs, implement output encoding, and consider disabling the email function until resolved.

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. Verify Cybozu Garoon is installed
    Identify the installed application - confirm it is Cybozu Garoon by checking the product name in the system information or administration console
    Affected if The application is not Cybozu Garoon, then this CVE does not apply
  2. Check installed version
    Access the system administration panel or version information page to determine the exact version number of Cybozu Garoon
    Affected if The version is 5.0.0 or higher but lower than 6.0.3 - this indicates the environment falls within the affected range
  3. Confirm E-mail function is enabled
    Navigate to the system settings or module configuration in the administration console and verify whether the E-mail function module is active and accessible to users
    Affected if The E-mail function is enabled and accessible - this is the specific component where the XSS vulnerability exists
  4. Verify user access to password reset flows
    Check if standard users have access to password reset functionality through the E-mail function, which is the attack vector for password manipulation
    Affected if Users can access password reset via email - combined with the vulnerable version and enabled email function, this creates the exploitation path described in the CVE

The environment is affected if Cybozu Garoon version is between 5.0.0 and 6.0.3 inclusive and the E-mail function is enabled and accessible to users.
