Description:
Juan Pablo Lopez Yacubian has reported a vulnerability in Novell GroupWise, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks.

Input passed via e.g. a .JPG attachment in Novell GroupWise WebAccess is not properly sanitised before being returned to a user. This can be exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's browser session in context of an affected site when a malicious .JPG attachment is viewed.

The vulnerability is reported in version 7. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Do not view attachments in email messages from untrusted sources.
