Lifecycle Timeline
3Description
FreeScout is a free help desk and shared inbox built with PHP's Laravel framework. Prior to 1.8.212, the endpoint GET /thread/read/{conversation_id}/{thread_id} does not require authentication and does not validate whether the given thread_id belongs to the given conversation_id. This allows any unauthenticated attacker to mark any thread as read by passing arbitrary IDs, enumerate valid thread IDs via HTTP response codes (200 vs 404), and manipulate opened_at timestamps across conversations (IDOR). This vulnerability is fixed in 1.8.212.
Analysis
Unauthenticated attackers can read arbitrary threads, enumerate thread IDs, and manipulate thread timestamps in FreeScout versions before 1.8.212 via an unvalidated IDOR vulnerability in the GET /thread/read/{conversation_id}/{thread_id} endpoint. The endpoint fails to verify both authentication and thread-conversation association, enabling complete enumeration of help desk conversations and metadata manipulation without credentials. …
