CVE-2016-6842
Estado: ModificadaMedia (6.1)—
An issue was discovered in Open-Xchange OX App Suite before 7.8.2-rev8. Setting the user's name to JS code makes that code execute when selecting that user's "Templates" folder from OX Documents settings. This requires the folder to be shared to the victim. Malicious script code can be executed within a user's context. This can lead to session hijacking or triggering unwanted actions via the web interface (sending mail, deleting data etc.).

Establecer el nombre del usuario en el código JS hace que el código se ejecute cuando se selecciona la carpeta \"Templates\" de ese usuario desde ajustes OX Documents. Esto requiere que esa capeta sea compartida a la victima. El código script malicioso puede ser ejecutado en un contexto de usuario. Esto puede conducir al secuestro de sesión o activar acciones no deseadas a través de la interfaz web (envío de correo, eliminación de datos, etc.)."
