User ID references at mentions in document comments were not correctly sanitized. Script code could be injected to a users session when working with a malicious document. Please deploy the provided updates and patch releases. User-defined content like comments and mentions are now filtered to avoid potentially malicious content. No publicly available exploits are known.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2023-41703 is a cross-site scripting issue in Open-Xchange OX App Suite document comments. A malicious document could inject script into a user's session through poorly sanitized mention user ID references. It requires user interaction and has limited confidentiality and integrity impact. The vendor says updates and patch releases address filtering of comments and mentions. Exposure appears limited to OX App Suite environments using the affected document comment and mention functionality. The bundle does not provide a clear affected version range beyond the vendor patch release context, so vulnerability managers should map deployments against OXAS-ADV-2023-0007 and the 7.10.6 patch release notes. Treat this as a moderate-priority patching item. It is not currently supported as actively exploited, but it can affect user sessions when malicious documents are opened. Prioritize environments with external document exchange or broad collaboration use. Mitigation focus: Deploy the vendor-provided updates and patch releases for OX App Suite.; Review OXAS-ADV-2023-0007 and the Patch Release 6259 notes for applicability.; Prioritize systems where users exchange or open untrusted documents..
