What the vulnerability does
The FuseDesk plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘successredirect’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
FuseDesk versions 6.7 and earlier contain a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that allows authenticated users to inject malicious scripts affecting other users. The vulnerability has a changed scope, meaning the impact extends beyond the vulnerable component itself. Upgrade to version 6.8.1 or later to remediate.
What an attacker can do
Inject malicious scripts that execute in other users' browsers and affect the application's functionality.
Potential impact on your site
Authenticated users can inject scripts that compromise other users' sessions, steal data, or deface the application interface.
Conditions required to exploit
Attacker must have a valid user account with low-level privileges on the FuseDesk instance.
