Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2012-6565 is an authenticated cross-site scripting issue in REDCap before 4.14.3. A logged-in user could place script or HTML into user-defined labels using uppercase JavaScript event characters. Business urgency depends on whether older REDCap versions remain deployed and who can edit labels. Exposure is likely limited to REDCap installations older than 4.14.3 where authenticated users can create or modify user-defined labels. The source bundle does not identify specific CPEs, deployment configurations, or default privilege requirements beyond authenticated access. Treat this as a targeted remediation item, not a crisis, unless legacy REDCap is still in use with broad label-editing access. Prioritize confirmation of version status and upgrade planning for any instance below 4.14.3. Mitigation focus: Upgrade REDCap to version 4.14.3 or later where applicable.; Review REDCap release notes and vendor guidance for supported remediation details.; Restrict label-editing permissions to trusted roles until upgrades are complete..
