AI-suggested

Organizations should immediately upgrade all ArcGIS Pro installations to version 3.6.1 or later, where the vulnerability is patched. Implement strict local user access controls to limit the number of users with physical or remote desktop access to systems running ArcGIS Pro. Employ endpoint security solutions that monitor and restrict execution of unauthorized scripts or code injections within applications. Conduct user training to raise awareness about the risks of opening untrusted dialogs or files within ArcGIS Pro. Regularly audit and monitor local user activities on GIS workstations to detect suspicious behavior indicative of exploitation attempts. Consider application whitelisting to prevent unauthorized modifications to ArcGIS Pro files or configurations. In environments with shared workstations, enforce session isolation and robust authentication to reduce the risk of local privilege abuse. Finally, maintain up-to-date backups of GIS projects to recover from potential data integrity compromises.

Description

There is a Cross‑Site Scripting (XSS) issue in Esri ArcGIS Pro versions 3.6.0 and earlier. ArcGIS Pro is a desktop application, and exploitation is limited to local users interacting with the application; no privileged role or elevated permissions are required beyond standard local user access. A local attacker can supply malicious strings that may be rendered and executed when a specific dialog within ArcGIS Pro is opened. This issue is fixed in ArcGIS Pro version 3.6.1.
