Description:
Tan Chew Keong has reported three vulnerabilities in SurgeMail, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks and by malicious users to conduct script insertion attacks, bypass certain security restrictions, and gain knowledge of various information.

1) An input validation error in the webmail functionality when handling attachment uploads can be exploited via directory traversal attacks to disclose the contents of some directories, retrieve certain files, and upload files to arbitrary locations.

2) An input validation error in the auto-reply configuration functionality can be exploited by a user to inject arbitrary HTML and script code in the auto-reply message, which may be executed in an administrative user's browser session in context of a vulnerable site when viewing a user's auto-reply settings.

3) Input passed to the "page" parameter of "webmail.exe" is not properly sanitised before being returned to users. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of a vulnerable site.

Example:
http://[host]/scripts/webmail.exe?page=[code]

Solution:
Update to version 3.0c2.
