What is CVE-2025-66376?

CVE-2025-66376 is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability found in Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS), specifically impacting versions 10 prior to 10.0.18 and 10.1 prior to 10.1.13. Zimbra Collaboration is an open-source platform primarily used for email hosting and collaboration, offering tools such as email, calendar, and file sharing. The vulnerability can be exploited through manipulated HTML email messages containing Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) @import directives, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary scripts within the context of a user's browser. This compromise can lead to the theft of sensitive user information, unauthorized actions performed on behalf of users, or the delivery of further malicious payloads.

Potential impact of CVE-2025-66376

  1. Data Leakage: Exploitation of this vulnerability permits attackers to access sensitive information stored in the user's session or browser, potentially leading to data breaches and unauthorized access to confidential communications.

  2. Account Compromise: By executing scripts through the stored XSS, attackers could manipulate user sessions, allowing them to perform actions as authenticated users, which may include changing account settings or sending emails without the user's consent.

  3. Malware Propagation: Successful exploitation could be leveraged to distribute malware or phishing attempts to other users, compounding the risk of infection and increasing the attack surface of the organization as more users may fall victim to follow-up attacks.
