Script execution via unescaped remembered username
Published Nov 24, 2025 · Updated Nov 28, 2025
Stored cross-site scripting in Alinto SOGo before 5.12.4 allows remote attackers to execute script in a login-page visitor's browser. SOGoRootPage connectAction copies the unauthenticated userName value into the SOGoLogin cookie, and the login page decodes that value into an inline JavaScript string without context-appropriate escaping. Exploitation requires the Remember Username option and a subsequent visit to the authentication page; injected script runs in the SOGo origin and can read or alter browser-accessible data.
