CVE-2025-27915: in the CISA KEV catalogue

Synacor Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) Cross-site Scripting Vulnerability. CISA added CVE-2025-27915 to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue on 2025-10-07 with a default due date of 2025-10-28. Known ransomware campaign use: Unknown. Forensic triage flag: No.

Synacor Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability that 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 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. (CISA description)
