In Horde Groupware, there has been an XSS via the Name field during creation of a new Resource. This could have been leveraged for remote code execution after compromising an administrator account, because the CVE-2015-7984 CSRF protection mechanism can then be bypassed.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 4.2.19-1+deb9u1.
