NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php-horde-kronolith package and not the php-horde-kronolith package as distributed by Debian.

In Horde Groupware 5.2.19, there is XSS via the Name field during creation of a new Resource. This can be leveraged for remote code execution after compromising an administrator account, because the CVE-2015-7984 CSRF protection mechanism can then be bypassed.
