    Synopsis
    ========

    eGroupWare is affected by several SQL injection and cross-site
    scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities.

    Background
    ==========

    eGroupWare is a suite of web-based group applications including
    calendar, address book, messenger and email.

    Affected packages
    =================

        -------------------------------------------------------------------
         Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
        -------------------------------------------------------------------
      1 www-apps/egroupware < 1.0.0.007 >= 1.0.0.007

    Description
    ===========

    Multiple SQL injection and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities have
    been found in several eGroupWare modules.

    Impact
    ======

    An attacker could possibly use the SQL injection vulnerabilites to gain
    information from the database. Furthermore the cross-site scripting
    issues give an attacker the ability to inject and execute malicious
    script code or to steal cookie based authentication credentials,
    potentially compromising the victim's browser.

    Workaround
    ==========

    There is no known workaround at this time.

    Resolution
    ==========

    All eGroupWare users should upgrade to the latest version:

        # emerge --sync
        # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/egroupware-1.0.0.007"
