Summary0003245: Unable to remove contacts in Address book
Description

Certain contacts cannot be removed from the address book. While the contacts are 'illegal', it is possible to create them. If you can have a target create these contacts, (eg through CSRF), he will not be able to remove them.

Steps To Reproduce

create a contact with ID test<a>test

  1. setup a proxy to intercept the request
  2. create a new contact and intercept the request
  3. replace POST /SOGo/so/test@testdomain.com/Contacts/personal/261D-55757E00-11-3A795480.vcf/saveAsContact
    with
    POST /SOGo/so/test@testdomain.com/Contacts/personal/test<a>test/saveAsContact
  4. attempt to delete or move the contact
Additional Information

Since creating a contact in the address book does not depend on a CSRF token, this can be used in an attack against other users. The only information required is the username of the victim which is a lot of cases will simply be the email address.

Note that the intercepting proxy is only required to easily reproduce, you can also create a webpage that triggers the altered POST request
