LimeSurvey Community Edition 7.0.5 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the survey quota creation workflow. An authenticated low-privileged user who can create and manage their own survey can store malicious JavaScript in a quota message.
This issue affects LimeSurvey: 7.0.5.
AnalysisAI
Stored cross-site scripting in LimeSurvey Community Edition 7.0.5 allows an authenticated low-privileged user with survey creation rights to persist malicious JavaScript via the survey quota message field, which executes in the browser of any user who subsequently views that quota. The CVSS 4.0 score of 7.2 reflects high confidentiality and integrity impact on the vulnerable system (VC:H/VI:H), with realistic escalation to administrator-level session compromise if an admin reviews attacker-controlled quota messages. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The attacker must hold an authenticated LimeSurvey account with permissions to create surveys and define quota settings - specifically the 'create survey' and 'manage survey quota' capabilities assigned to their role. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N) presents a moderately elevated risk profile. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No confirmed patched version has been identified from the available data; the GitHub reference (https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey) does not link to a specific fix commit or tagged release, so a vendor-released patch is not independently confirmed at time of analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all LimeSurvey Community Edition 7.0.5 instances, document survey creator permissions, and immediately revoke survey creation rights to all except fully trusted administrators. …
