CVE-2025-12264 identifies a cross-site scripting vulnerability in Wisencode, a software product used for managing support tickets. The vulnerability exists in the /support-ticket/create endpoint within the Create Support Ticket Handler component. Specifically, the 'Message' parameter is not properly sanitized or encoded before being rendered in the web interface, allowing an attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript code. This flaw can be exploited remotely without authentication, though it requires that a victim user interact with a maliciously crafted support ticket message, typically by viewing it in a browser. The vulnerability can lead to the execution of attacker-controlled scripts in the context of the victim's browser session, potentially enabling theft of session cookies, redirection to malicious sites, or other client-side attacks. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 5.1 (medium severity), reflecting the network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, but requiring user interaction and limited impact on confidentiality and integrity. The vendor was contacted early but has not issued a patch or response, and no public exploits are known at this time. This vulnerability highlights the importance of proper input validation and output encoding in web applications, especially in components handling user-generated content such as support tickets.

For European organizations, this vulnerability poses a risk primarily to the confidentiality and integrity of user sessions and data accessed through the Wisencode support ticket system. Successful exploitation could allow attackers to execute malicious scripts in the browsers of support staff or customers, potentially leading to session hijacking, credential theft, or phishing attacks. This could disrupt support operations, damage organizational reputation, and lead to data breaches involving sensitive customer information. Given the remote exploitation capability and lack of required privileges, attackers could target organizations without prior access. The impact is heightened in sectors with high reliance on customer support platforms, such as telecommunications, finance, and public services. Additionally, the lack of vendor response increases the risk window, requiring organizations to implement compensating controls. While no widespread exploitation is reported, the vulnerability could be leveraged in targeted attacks against European entities using Wisencode, especially those with high volumes of support interactions.

European organizations using Wisencode should immediately implement the following mitigations: 1) Apply any available patches or updates from the vendor as soon as they are released. 2) If patches are unavailable, implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block suspicious input patterns targeting the 'Message' parameter in the /support-ticket/create endpoint. 3) Enforce strict input validation and output encoding on the 'Message' field to neutralize malicious scripts, potentially by sanitizing inputs at the application layer or using security libraries that encode output safely. 4) Educate support staff and users to recognize phishing attempts and suspicious support ticket content. 5) Monitor logs for unusual activity related to support ticket creation and access. 6) Consider isolating the support ticket system or restricting access to trusted networks until a fix is available. 7) Conduct regular security assessments and penetration tests focusing on XSS vulnerabilities in customer-facing applications.
