Threat metrics

Exploit Maturity: POC

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable system is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed below, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed “remotely exploitable” and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: The attacker must take no measurable action to exploit the vulnerability. The attack requires no target-specific circumvention to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable system.
Attack Requirements: None: The successful attack does not depend on the deployment and execution conditions of the vulnerable system. The attacker can expect to be able to reach the vulnerability and execute the exploit under all or most instances of the vulnerability.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker requires privileges that provide basic capabilities that are typically limited to settings and resources owned by a single low-privileged user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges has the ability to access only non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: Passive: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires limited interaction by the targeted user with the vulnerable system and the attacker’s payload. These interactions would be considered involuntary and do not require that the user actively subvert protections built into the vulnerable system.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Subsequent System or all confidentiality impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Subsequent System or all integrity impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Subsequent System or all availability impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Exploit Maturity: POC: Based on threat intelligence sources each of the following must apply: · Proof-of-concept is publicly available · No knowledge of reported attempts to exploit this vulnerability · No knowledge of publicly available solutions used to simplify attempts to exploit the vulnerability

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), CVSS vector, the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2025-14580, organizations should immediately identify all instances of Qualitor in their environment and verify the version in use. The primary recommendation is to apply the vendor-provided patches or upgrade to the fixed version beyond 8.24.73 as soon as possible. If immediate patching is not feasible, implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block suspicious requests containing malicious scripts targeting the 'cdscript' parameter. Conduct thorough input validation and output encoding on all user-supplied data within custom integrations or extensions to Qualitor. Educate users about the risks of clicking on unsolicited links and implement security awareness training to reduce the likelihood of successful social engineering. Monitor logs for unusual activity or repeated access attempts to the vulnerable endpoint. Additionally, restrict access to the Qualitor web interface to trusted networks or VPNs to reduce exposure. Regularly review and update security controls and perform penetration testing to identify residual risks. Finally, maintain an incident response plan to quickly address any exploitation attempts.

Description

A security vulnerability has been detected in Qualitor up to 8.24.73. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file /Qualitor/html/bc/bcdocumento9/biblioteca/request/viewDocumento.php. Such manipulation of the argument cdscript leads to cross site scripting. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. It is suggested to upgrade the affected component. The vendor confirms the existence of the issue: "We became aware of the issue through an earlier direct notification from the original reporter, and our engineering team promptly investigated and implemented the necessary corrective measures. (...) Updated versions containing the fix have already been provided to our customer base".

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2025-14580 is the potential compromise of user confidentiality and integrity within affected Qualitor deployments. Successful exploitation allows attackers to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of authenticated users, potentially leading to session hijacking, credential theft, unauthorized actions, or phishing attacks. This can undermine trust in the affected service and lead to data leakage or unauthorized modifications of service requests or documentation managed by Qualitor. Since the vulnerability is remotely exploitable without authentication, any exposed Qualitor web interface is at risk, increasing the attack surface. The requirement for user interaction limits automated exploitation but does not eliminate risk, especially in environments where social engineering or phishing is feasible. The vulnerability does not affect availability directly but could be leveraged as part of a broader attack chain. Organizations relying on Qualitor for ITSM processes may experience operational disruptions or compliance issues if sensitive information is compromised. The medium CVSS score reflects moderate risk but should not lead to complacency given the public disclosure and ease of exploitation.

Summary

CVE-2025-14580 is a medium-severity cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability identified in the Qualitor IT Service Management (ITSM) software, affecting all versions up to 8.24.73. The vulnerability resides in an unspecified function within the PHP file located at /Qualitor/html/bc/bcdocumento9/biblioteca/request/viewDocumento.php, specifically involving the manipulation of the 'cdscript' parameter. This parameter is insufficiently sanitized, allowing an attacker to inject malicious JavaScript code that executes in the context of a victim's browser when they access a crafted URL. The attack vector is remote and does not require prior authentication, although it does require user interaction to trigger the malicious script. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates network attack vector (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), no privileges required (PR:L - low privileges required), user interaction needed (UI:P), and limited impact on confidentiality and integrity (VC:N, VI:L), with no impact on availability. The vendor was notified directly and has since released patched versions to customers, though no public patch links are provided in the data. The vulnerability could be exploited to steal session cookies, perform actions on behalf of users, or redirect users to malicious sites, potentially leading to further compromise. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, but public disclosure increases the risk of exploitation attempts. The vulnerability affects a wide range of versions, indicating a long-standing issue in the product's codebase. Organizations using Qualitor should verify their version and apply updates promptly to remediate this issue.
