SmarterMail before build 9777 contains a stored mutation cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows remote attackers to inject executable script by placing payloads inside a <style> element nested within MathML foreign content (<math><mtext><mglyph>), which the custom HTML sanitizer treats as inert CDATA text but browsers reparse as live markup. Attackers can deliver a crafted calendar (iCal) message containing an <img src=x onerror=...> payload that executes automatically in the recipient's webmail session at /interface/message-iframe when the message is opened, enabling script execution and data exfiltration unconstrained by the interface's permissive Content-Security-Policy.
