Zulip Server before 2.1.3 allows XSS via a Markdown link, with resultant account takeover.

Zulip Desktop before 4.0.3 loaded untrusted content in an Electron webview with web security disabled, which can be exploited for XSS in a number of ways. This especially affects Zulip Desktop 2.3.82.

In Zulip Server versions from 1.7.0 to before 2.0.7, a bug in the new user signup process meant that users who registered their account using social authentication (e.g., GitHub or Google SSO) in an organization that also allows password authentication could have their personal API key stolen by an unprivileged attacker, allowing nearly full access to the user's account.

Jenkins Zulip Plugin 1.1.0 and earlier stored credentials unencrypted in its global configuration file on the Jenkins master where they could be viewed by users with access to the master file system.

Zulip server before 2.0.5 incompletely validated the MIME types of uploaded files. A user who is logged into the server could upload files of certain types to mount a stored cross-site scripting attack on other logged-in users. On a Zulip server using the default local uploads backend, the attack is only effective against browsers lacking support for Content-Security-Policy such as Internet Explorer 11. On a Zulip server using the S3 uploads backend, the attack is confined to the origin of the configured S3 uploads hostname and cannot reach the Zulip server itself.

The Markdown parser in Zulip server before 2.0.5 used a regular expression vulnerable to exponential backtracking. A user who is logged into the server could send a crafted message causing the server to spend an effectively arbitrary amount of CPU time and stall the processing of future messages.

The image thumbnailing handler in Zulip Server versions 1.9.0 to before 2.0.8 allowed an open redirect that was visible to logged-in users.
