Unauthenticated conversation disclosure via exposed session identifiers
Published Dec 3, 2025 · Updated Apr 22, 2026
Sensitive information exposure in MxChat 2.5.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to obtain session IDs from uploaded filenames. The mxchat_fetch_conversation_history AJAX handler reads options keyed only by a client-supplied session ID without verifying session ownership. A visitor-accessible nonce and a disclosed or guessed session ID are sufficient to read conversation messages, metadata, and stored IP addresses.
