CVE-2026-104083SmarterMail < Build 9777 Stored Mutation XSS via MathML Foreign Content
Medium 6.1
In plain English
A medium-severity cross-site scripting in Smartermail from Smartertools. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.3% (higher than 26% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
SmarterMail before build 9777 contains a stored mutation cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows remote attackers to inject executable script by placing payloads inside a <style> element nested within MathML foreign content (<math><mtext><mglyph>), which the custom HTML sanitizer treats as inert CDATA text but browsers reparse as live markup. Attackers can deliver a crafted calendar (iCal) message containing an <img src=x onerror=...> payload that executes automatically in the recipient's webmail session at /interface/message-iframe when the message is opened, enabling script execution and data exfiltration unconstrained by the interface's permissive Content-Security-Policy.
