<description>
<p>Roundcube, when no SMTP server is configured and the sendmail program is
enabled, does not properly restrict the use of custom envelope-from
addresses on the sendmail command line.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>An authenticated remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code
with the privileges of the process, or cause a Denial of Service
condition.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>Dont use a MTA (Mail Transfer Agent) in conjunction with Roundcube
which implements sendmails “-O” or “-X” parameter, or
configure Roundcube to use a SMTP server as recommended by upstream.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All Roundcube users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=mail-client/roundcube-1.2.3"
</code>
</resolution>
