CVE-2023-52329Network attack vector

Remote script execution via unvalidated dashboard parameters

Published Jan 23, 2024 · Updated Jun 17, 2025

Cross-site scripting in Apex Central 2019 before 8.0.0.6570 allows remote attackers to execute script through a dashboard widget. The modDLPTemplateMatch_drildown.php component fails to validate multiple user-supplied parameters before placing them into generated page content. Exploitation requires a target to visit a malicious page or open a malicious file, and injected script runs in the current user's context.
