MySource Matrix after 3.8 allows remote attackers to use the application as an HTTP proxy server via a MIME encoded URL in the sq_content_src parameter to access arbitrary sites with the server's IP address and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. NOTE: the researcher reports that "The vendor does not consider this a vulnerability.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue describes MySource Matrix being usable as an unintended HTTP proxy. A remote attacker could make the server request arbitrary sites, so activity appears to come from the organization’s server IP. The CVE also notes possible cross-site scripting. The vendor reportedly did not consider it a vulnerability, and the provided sources do not name a patch. Exposure is most likely on publicly reachable legacy MySource Matrix deployments where the sq_content_src parameter is available. The bundle does not provide CPEs, exact affected releases, or configuration prerequisites, so asset-specific confirmation is required. Prioritize investigation if legacy MySource Matrix is internet-facing or handles trusted user sessions. Business risk is reputational and operational: the server could be misused as a proxy, and users could face XSS exposure. Urgency is lower where the product is absent or isolated. Mitigation focus: Inventory any MySource Matrix deployments and confirm version and support status.; Check Squiz or current vendor guidance for historical fixes or configuration controls.; Restrict public access to affected functionality where business use is not required..
