DESCRIPTION ------------------------- Has been detected a reflected XSS vulnerability in the login process of the Atmail WebMail, that allows the execution of arbitrary HTML/script code to be executed in the context of the victim user's browser. The code injection is done through the "MailType" parameter, and can be exploited without a user account in the WebMail.
