ASA-202107-41: nextcloud-app-mail: information disclosure
Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-202107-41
=========================================
Severity: Low
Date : 2021-07-20
CVE-ID : CVE-2021-32707
Package : nextcloud-app-mail
Type : information disclosure
Remote : Yes
Link : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-2145
Summary
======
The package nextcloud-app-mail before version 1.10.1-1 is vulnerable to
information disclosure.
Resolution
=========
Upgrade to 1.10.1-1.
# pacman -Syu "nextcloud-app-mail>=1.10.1-1"
The problem has been fixed upstream in version 1.10.1.
Workaround
=========
None.
Description
==========
In versions prior to 1.9.6, the Nextcloud Mail application does not, by
default, render images in emails to not leak the read state. The
privacy filter failed to filter images with `background-image` CSS
attribute. Note that the images were still passed through the Nextcloud
image proxy, and thus there was no IP leakage.
Impact
=====
A remote attacker could disclose whether an email message has been read
by embedding a remote CSS background image.
