Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

A Stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the request module of ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus, ServiceDesk Plus MSP, and SupportCenter Plus. The vulnerability allows malicious scripts to be persisted within the request handling functionality and executed when other users view the affected content, potentially leading to session hijacking or credential theft.

MitigationApply vendor-provided patches for the specific product versions (14810 for ServiceDesk Plus, 14800 for MSP and SupportCenter Plus). Implement input validation and output encoding for all user-supplied data in the request module as a defense-in-depth measure.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify the installed product
    Determine which ManageEngine product is running: ServiceDesk Plus, ServiceDesk Plus MSP, or SupportCenter Plus. Access the admin console and navigate to the About or Product Info section to confirm the product name.
    Affected if The product is ServiceDesk Plus, ServiceDesk Plus MSP, or SupportCenter Plus
  2. Check the installed version
    Locate the version number in the product's About or Product Info section. Compare the version against the affected range: versions 14.8 and any version equal to or below 14.7.
    Affected if The installed version is 14.8 or any version <= 14.7
  3. Confirm request module is in use
    Verify that the request handling functionality is accessible. In the technician or user portal, navigate to the Requests module to confirm it is enabled and operational.
    Affected if The request module is active and users can create or view requests
  4. Audit request data for injected scripts
    Review existing requests in the system for any suspicious content in request titles, descriptions, or custom fields. Look for script tags, event handlers, or encoded JavaScript that may indicate XSS payloads have been stored.
    Affected if Malicious script content is found persisted in request module data fields

If the installed product is ServiceDesk Plus, ServiceDesk Plus MSP, or SupportCenter Plus with version 14.8 or below, and the request module is accessible, the environment is affected by this stored XSS vulnerability.
