Various vulnerabilities have been found in SquirrelMail, a webmail application. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following vulnerabilities:

  Multiple small bugs in SquirrelMail allowed an attacker to inject malicious script into various pages or alter the contents of user preferences.
