Description Josh Bressers 2006-08-11 14:39:54 UTC
Squirrelmail authenticated user variable overwriting

A bug was fixed in squirrelmail 1.4.8 which could allow a logged in
user to overwrite random variables in compose.php with arbitrary data.
This may allow a user to read or write another users preferences or
mail attachments.
