Authenticated script execution via crafted PDF
Published Mar 31, 2025 · Updated Mar 31, 2025
Cross-site scripting in GFI Software Kerio Connect 10.0.6 allows remote authenticated users to execute script via crafted PDF content. The public record names the PDF File Handler but does not disclose which parsing, validation, or output-encoding operation mishandles the input. A valid account and passive interaction by another user are required, and the published consequence is limited to browser-context data modification.
