mailcow: dockerized vulnerable to stored XSS in user login history real_rip

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 15.04.2026 Published: 21.04.2026 Updated: 21.04.2026

mailcow: dockerized is an open source groupware/email suite based on docker. In versions prior to 2026-03b, the user dashboard's "Seen successful connections" (login history) renders the client IP from login logs without HTML escaping. Because the server trusts the X-Real-IP header as the source IP for logging, an attacker can inject HTML/JS into this field. This Self-XSS can be exploited by a Login CSRF to force the victim into the attacker's account, and then read emails in a previous browser tab. Version 2026-03b fixes the vulnerability.
