CVE-2025-58970 identifies a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the AmentoTech Doctreat platform, versions up to and including 1.6.7. This vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of script-related HTML tags within web pages, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts. The vulnerability is classified as a basic XSS, meaning that it does not require complex exploitation techniques but does require the attacker to have some level of authenticated access (PR:L) and user interaction (UI:R). The vulnerability affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:I:A all impacted) and has a scope change (S:C), meaning the impact extends beyond the vulnerable component to other parts of the system or users. The CVSS vector indicates network attack vector (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), and privileges required (PR:L), which implies that an attacker must be a logged-in user with some privileges but not necessarily administrative rights. The vulnerability allows code injection, which can lead to session hijacking, defacement, or redirection to malicious sites. Although no exploits are currently known in the wild, the vulnerability is publicly disclosed and should be addressed promptly. The lack of available patches at the time of publication increases the urgency for temporary mitigations such as input sanitization and output encoding. Doctreat is a platform commonly used for appointment booking and healthcare service management, making it a valuable target for attackers seeking to compromise sensitive user data or disrupt services.

For European organizations, especially those in healthcare, wellness, or service booking sectors using Doctreat, this vulnerability poses a significant risk. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive patient or client information, manipulation of appointment data, or disruption of service availability. The XSS flaw could enable attackers to hijack user sessions, steal authentication tokens, or perform actions on behalf of legitimate users, undermining trust and compliance with data protection regulations such as GDPR. The medium severity rating reflects the need for timely remediation to prevent potential data breaches or service interruptions. Given the interconnected nature of healthcare services in Europe, a successful attack could cascade, affecting multiple stakeholders and causing reputational damage and regulatory penalties.

1. Monitor AmentoTech’s official channels for patches addressing CVE-2025-58970 and apply them immediately upon release. 2. Until patches are available, implement strict input validation on all user-supplied data, especially in fields that accept HTML or script content. 3. Employ robust output encoding/escaping techniques to neutralize script tags before rendering content in browsers. 4. Restrict user privileges to the minimum necessary to reduce the risk of exploitation by authenticated users. 5. Use Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to limit the execution of unauthorized scripts in browsers. 6. Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing focusing on XSS vulnerabilities within Doctreat deployments. 7. Educate users and administrators about the risks of XSS and encourage vigilance against suspicious activities. 8. Consider deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAF) with rules tailored to detect and block XSS payloads targeting Doctreat.
