CWE-200Published: April 21, 2026· Updated: Apr 22, 2026
Official Description
FreeScout is a free self-hosted help desk and shared mailbox. Prior to version 1.8.215, the assigned-only restriction is applied to direct conversation view and folder queries, but not to non-folder query builders. Global search and the AJAX filter path still reveal conversations that should be hidden. Version 1.8.215 fixes the vulnerability.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-41183 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-200): Information exposure vulnerabilities leak sensitive data to unauthorized actors.
