Synacor - Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) · Listed in the CISA KEV since 2025-10-07. This indicates confirmed attacks in production environments.
Required action: Apply mitigations per vendor instructions, follow applicable BOD 22-01 guidance for cloud services, or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.
CVE-2025-27915
MediumCVSS 5.4KEVSummary
An issue was discovered in Zimbra Collaboration (ZCS) 9.0 and 10.0 and 10.1. A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the Classic Web Client due to insufficient sanitization of HTML content in ICS files. When a user views an e-mail message containing a malicious ICS entry, its embedded JavaScript executes via an ontoggle event inside a <details> tag. This allows an attacker to run arbitrary JavaScript within the victim's session, potentially leading to unauthorized actions such as setting e-mail filters to redirect messages to an attacker-controlled address. As a result, an attacker can perform unauthorized actions on the victim's account, including e-mail redirection and data exfiltration.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can perform unauthorized actions on the victim's account, including email redirection and data exfiltration, potentially leading to leakage of confidential information.
Recommendation
Update Zimbra Collaboration to a version containing the fix for this vulnerability and inform users about the risks of opening suspicious messages with ICS attachments.

A Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability exists in the Webmail Classic UI of Zimbra Collaboration (ZCS) 10.0 and 10.1 due to improper handling of user-supplied request parameters in the RestFilter servlet. An unauthenticated remote attacker can craft requests to the /h/rest endpoint to influence internal request dispatching, allowing inclusion of arbitrary files from the WebRoot directory.
- CVE-2025-48700MediumActively exploited
A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Zimbra Classic UI allows attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript within the user's session. It arises from insufficient sanitization of HTML content, including crafted tag structures and attribute values with an @import directive. The vulnerability triggers when a user views a crafted email in the Classic UI, requiring no additional interaction.
- CVE-2024-27443MediumActively exploited
A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the CalendarInvite feature of the Zimbra webmail classic user interface in Zimbra Collaboration (ZCS) 9.0 and 10.0. An attacker can send an email with a crafted calendar header containing an XSS payload, which executes in the victim's session.
