CVE-2025-10943 is a medium severity cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability identified in the MikeCen WeChat-Face-Recognition product, specifically affecting the function 'valid' within the wx.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization of the 'echostr' parameter, which can be manipulated by an attacker to inject malicious scripts. This flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of the victim's browser when they interact with a crafted URL or input. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable without requiring authentication, but it does require user interaction (e.g., clicking a malicious link). The product does not use versioning, making it difficult to determine the full scope of affected releases beyond the identified commit hash (6e3f72bf8547d80b59e330f1137e4aa505f492c1). The vendor has not responded to disclosure attempts, and no patches or mitigations have been officially released. The CVSS 4.0 score is 5.1, reflecting a medium severity level due to the remote attack vector, lack of required privileges, but the necessity of user interaction and limited impact on confidentiality and availability. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild. The vulnerability primarily threatens the integrity of user sessions and could be leveraged for phishing, session hijacking, or delivering malware payloads via the victim's browser session within the affected application context.

For European organizations using MikeCen WeChat-Face-Recognition, this vulnerability could lead to targeted attacks where malicious actors exploit the XSS flaw to compromise user sessions, steal sensitive information, or perform unauthorized actions on behalf of users. Given the integration with WeChat and face recognition technology, there may be privacy implications, including unauthorized access to biometric data or user credentials. The attack could undermine trust in the application, disrupt business operations relying on this technology, and potentially lead to regulatory non-compliance under GDPR if personal data is exposed or mishandled. The medium severity suggests that while the impact is not catastrophic, exploitation could facilitate further attacks or data leakage, especially in environments where the application is integrated with critical systems or handles sensitive user information.

Since no official patch or versioning information is available, European organizations should implement immediate compensating controls. These include: 1) Input validation and output encoding on the 'echostr' parameter at the web application firewall (WAF) or reverse proxy level to block or sanitize malicious payloads; 2) Deploy Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict the execution of unauthorized scripts; 3) Conduct thorough code reviews and consider custom patching or disabling the vulnerable 'valid' function if feasible; 4) Educate users about the risks of clicking untrusted links related to the application; 5) Monitor application logs for suspicious requests targeting the 'echostr' parameter; 6) Isolate or segment the affected application to limit lateral movement in case of compromise; 7) Engage with the vendor or community for updates or unofficial patches; 8) Plan for migration to alternative solutions if the vendor remains unresponsive and the risk is unacceptable.
