Title
Stored Cross-Site Scripting in Altium Support Center Comment Endpoint
Summary
A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the Altium Support Center AddComment endpoint due to missing server-side input sanitization. Although the client interface applies HTML escaping, the backend accepts and stores arbitrary HTML and JavaScript supplied via modified POST requests. The injected content is rendered verbatim when support cases are viewed by other users, including support staff with elevated privileges, allowing execution of arbitrary JavaScript in the victim’s browser context.
CWE
  • CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation (Cross-site Scripting)
  • CWE-116 - Improper Encoding or Escaping of Output
