Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in vTiger CRM 4.2 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) various input fields, including the contact, lead, and first or last name fields, (2) the record parameter in a DetailView action in the Leads module for index.php, (3) the $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] variable, which is used in multiple locations such as index.php, and (4) aggregated RSS feeds in the RSS aggregation module.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes multiple cross-site scripting issues in vTiger CRM 4.2 and earlier. A remote attacker could inject script or HTML into CRM pages, potentially affecting users who view crafted records, feeds, or pages. The main business risk is session abuse, data exposure, or fraudulent actions inside a legacy CRM environment. Exposure is most likely in organizations still running vTiger CRM 4.2 or earlier, especially internet-facing deployments or systems using the Leads, Contacts, and RSS aggregation features. Prioritize remediation if this CRM is still used or externally reachable. The vulnerability is old, but legacy CRM exposure can still enable account abuse and customer-data risk. Mitigation focus: Identify and retire any vTiger CRM 4.2 or earlier instances.; Check current vendor guidance for the fixed or supported upgrade path.; Restrict internet access to legacy CRM systems until remediated..
