CVE-2026-48215: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in Open ISES Tickets
Open ISES Tickets before 3.44.2 contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in circle.php that allows authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript by passing an unsanitized value through the frm_id POST parameter directly into an HTML form input value attribute. Attackers can craft a malicious request containing a JavaScript payload that executes in the victim's browser when the response is rendered.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-48215 is a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability affecting Open ISES Tickets prior to version 3.44.2. The issue arises because the frm_id POST parameter is directly embedded into an HTML form input value without proper neutralization, enabling authenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the victim's browser. This can lead to typical XSS impacts such as session hijacking or unauthorized actions if exploited. The vulnerability requires user interaction and authentication to be exploited. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates network attack vector, low complexity, no privileges required, but user interaction is needed.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the victim's browser session when viewing the affected page. This can lead to theft of sensitive information, session hijacking, or other malicious actions performed in the context of the victim's session. The vulnerability is rated medium severity with a CVSS score of 5.1. There are no reports of active exploitation in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or temporary workaround is provided, users should monitor the vendor's communications for updates. Until a patch is available, restricting access to trusted users and minimizing exposure of the vulnerable functionality may reduce risk.
