Summary

FairEmail is an open source email app for Android. The ActivityAMP AMP message renderer enables JavaScript in its WebView but incompletely sanitizes untrusted message HTML. For non-allowlisted hosts, script.removeAttr("src") leaves inline script elements in the document and does not reject event-handler attributes or javascript: URLs on other elements. A crafted AMP email can execute arbitrary JavaScript when a recipient opens the message and enables the AMP toggle. This issue is fixed in version 1.2319.

Risk Assessment

The script can read the message DOM, exfiltrate message data, and display phishing overlays within the message-body area. The risk is reduced because AMP email is uncommon and exploitation requires the recipient to enable the AMP toggle.

Recommendation

Update FairEmail to version 1.2319 or later. Exercise caution when enabling the AMP toggle for messages from untrusted sources.

Original NVD description (English source)

FairEmail is a fully featured, open source, privacy-friendly email app for Android. Prior to 1.2319, the ActivityAMP AMP message renderer in app/src/main/java/eu/faircode/email/ActivityAMP.java enables JavaScript in its WebView but incompletely sanitizes untrusted message HTML. For non-allowlisted hosts, script.removeAttr("src") leaves inline script elements in the document and does not reject event-handler attributes or javascript: URLs on other elements. A crafted AMP email can execute arbitrary JavaScript when a recipient opens the message and enables the AMP toggle. The script can read the message DOM, exfiltrate message data, and display phishing overlays within the message-body area. Exploitation requires the recipient to enable the AMP toggle, and practical exposure is reduced because AMP email is uncommon. This issue is fixed in version 1.2319.
