Mark Sapiro reports :

A content injection vulnerability via the options login page has been discovered and reported by Vishal Singh.

An issue similar to CVE-2018-13796 exists at different endpoint & param. It can lead to a phishing attack.

(added 2020-05-07) This is essentially the same as https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1873722 except the vector is the private archive login page and the attack only succeeds if the list's roster visibility (private_roster) setting is 'Anyone'.

According to the versions of the mailman package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Mailman 2.1.26     and earlier allows remote authenticated attackers to     inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified     vectors.(CVE-2018-0618)

  - An issue was discovered in GNU Mailman before 2.1.28. A     crafted URL can cause arbitrary text to be displayed on     a web page from a trusted site.(CVE-2018-13796)

  - /options/mailman in GNU Mailman before 2.1.31 allows     Arbitrary Content Injection.(CVE-2020-12108)

  - GNU Mailman 2.x before 2.1.30 uses the .obj extension     for scrubbed application/octet-stream MIME parts. This     behavior may contribute to XSS attacks against     list-archive visitors, because an HTTP reply from an     archive web server may lack a MIME type, and a web     browser may perform MIME sniffing, conclude that the     MIME type should have been text/html, and execute     JavaScript code.(CVE-2020-12137)

  - GNU Mailman before 2.1.33 allows arbitrary content     injection via the Cgi/private.py private archive login     page.(CVE-2020-15011)
