FairEmail is a fully featured, open source, privacy-friendly email app for Android. Prior to 1.2319, the ActivityAMP AMP message renderer in app/src/main/java/eu/faircode/email/ActivityAMP.java enables JavaScript in its WebView but incompletely sanitizes untrusted message HTML. For non-allowlisted hosts, script.removeAttr("src") leaves inline script elements in the document and does not reject event-handler attributes or javascript: URLs on other elements. A crafted AMP email can execute arbitrary JavaScript when a recipient opens the message and enables the AMP toggle. The script can read the message DOM, exfiltrate message data, and display phishing overlays within the message-body area. Exploitation requires the recipient to enable the AMP toggle, and practical exposure is reduced because AMP email is uncommon. This issue is fixed in version 1.2319.
