Lifecycle Timeline
6DescriptionCVE.org
GFI HelpDesk before 4.99.10 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Reports module where the title parameter is passed directly to SWIFT_Report::Create() without HTML sanitization. Attackers can inject arbitrary JavaScript into the report title field when creating or editing a report, and the payload executes when staff members view and click the affected report link in the Manage Reports interface.
AnalysisAI
Stored cross-site scripting in GFI HelpDesk before version 4.99.10 allows authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript into report titles via the Reports module, with payload execution triggered when staff members access the report link in the Manage Reports interface. The vulnerability requires attacker authentication and user interaction (clicking the report link), limiting real-world impact to internal staff compromise scenarios rather than mass exploitation. …
