Squirrelmail: >> Squirrelmail >> 1.4.22 Security Vulnerabilities
SquirrelMail 1.4.22 (and other versions before 20170427_0200-SVN) allows post-authentication remote code execution via a sendmail.cf file that is mishandled in a popen call. It's possible to exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary shell commands on the remote server. The problem is in the Deliver_SendMail.class.php with the initStream function that uses escapeshellcmd() to sanitize the sendmail command before executing it. The use of escapeshellcmd() is not correct in this case since it doesn't escape whitespaces, allowing the injection of arbitrary command parameters. The problem is in -f$envelopefrom within the sendmail command line. Hence, if the target server uses sendmail and SquirrelMail is configured to use it as a command-line program, it's possible to trick sendmail into using an attacker-provided configuration file that triggers the execution of an arbitrary command. For exploitation, the attacker must upload a sendmail.cf file as an email attachment, and inject the sendmail.cf filename with the -C option within the "Options > Personal Informations > Email Address" setting.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in SquirrelMail before 1.4.18 and NaSMail before 1.7 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving (1) certain encrypted strings in e-mail headers, related to contrib/decrypt_headers.php; (2) PHP_SELF; and (3) the query string (aka QUERY_STRING).

The map_yp_alias function in functions/imap_general.php in SquirrelMail before 1.4.18 and NaSMail before 1.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a username string that is used by the ypmatch program.

functions/mime.php in SquirrelMail before 1.4.18 does not protect the application's content from Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) positioning in HTML e-mail messages, which allows remote attackers to spoof the user interface, and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) and phishing attacks, via a crafted message.
