Summary
An issue was discovered in Faronics Insight 10.0.19045 on Windows. It is possible for an attacker to create a proof-of-concept script that functions similarly to a Student Console, providing unauthenticated attackers with the ability to exploit XSS vulnerabilities within the Teacher Console application and achieve remote code execution as NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM on all connected Student Consoles and the Teacher Console in a Zero Click manner.
