CVE-2026-35584
CWE-306Published: April 7, 2026· Updated: Apr 9, 2026
Official Description
FreeScout is a free help desk and shared inbox built with PHP's Laravel framework. Prior to 1.8.212, the endpoint GET /thread/read/{conversation_id}/{thread_id} does not require authentication and does not validate whether the given thread_id belongs to the given conversation_id. This allows any unauthenticated attacker to mark any thread as read by passing arbitrary IDs, enumerate valid thread IDs via HTTP response codes (200 vs 404), and manipulate opened_at timestamps across conversations (IDOR). This vulnerability is fixed in 1.8.212.

CVE-2026-35584 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
