CVE-2024-33533: The Zimbra webmail admin interface has a vulnerability. It doesn’t properly validate the ‘packages’ parameter. An attacker who is authenticated could exploit this vulnerability to inject and run harmful JavaScript code in another user’s browser session.
CVE-2024-33535: There is a flaw in a web application that allows unauthenticated local file inclusion. This flaw is related to how the ‘packages’ parameter is handled. An attacker can use this vulnerability to include any local file without authentication. This could give them unauthorized access to sensitive information in a specific directory.
CVE-2024-33536: This vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in another user’s browser session. It occurs due to insufficient input validation of the ‘res’ parameter, similar to CVE-2024-33533.
