## Description
This script exploits a stored XSS vulnerability (CVE-2024-42009) in Roundcube Webmail version 1.6.7. It injects a malicious payload into the webmail system, which, when triggered, exfiltrates email content from the victim’s inbox.

   ```bash
   python3 exploit.py
   ```
2. **Configure your attack settings in `exploit.py`**
   - Set `TARGET_URL` to the target Roundcube instance.
   - Replace `YOUR_IP:4444` with your actual listener IP and port.
3. **Monitor captured email content in real time.**
