Roundcube 1.5.x before 1.5.6 and 1.6.x before 1.6.5 allows XSS via a Content-Type or Content-Disposition header (used for attachment preview or download).

According to its self-reported version number, Roundcube Webmail is prior to 1.5.6 or 1.6.x prior to 1.6.5. Therefore, it may be affected by a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability via a Content-Type or Content-Disposition header.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote openSUSE 15 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the openSUSE- SU-2024:0257-1 advisory.
