Details

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability allowed authenticated technicians to upload a malicious HTML file during task creation. The payload would be executed when other technicians or administrators (or SDAdmins) interact with the file.

Impact

Threat actors who have add/edit access to tasks could exploit this vulnerability to run custom scripts and carry out further malicious attacks.

How was it resolved?

We resolved this issue by encoding data during client-side rendering to prevent the script from being executed.
