An attacker may abuse HTML plug-in elements within an email to trigger frame navigation requests that bypass this filter.

MEDIUM 5.3EPSS 0.88%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.88%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An issue was discovered in Bloop Airmail 3 3.5.9 for macOS. Its primary WebView instance implements "webView:decidePolicyForNavigationAction:request:frame:decisionListener:" such that requests from HTMLIFrameElements are blacklisted. However, other sub-classes of HTMLFrameOwnerElements are not forbidden by the policy. An attacker may abuse HTML plug-in elements within an email to trigger frame navigation requests that bypass this filter.
