CVE-2025-61996Network attack vector

Stored XSS via unsanitized annual report template

Published Oct 7, 2025 · Updated Oct 7, 2025

Stored XSS in OPEXUS FOIAXpress before 11.13.3.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute content in generated Annual Reports. The Annual Report Template stores administrator-supplied JavaScript or other content without neutralization and renders it when another user generates a report. Administrative access is required, and execution in the target's session allows actions on that user's behalf, including theft of session cookies, credentials, or sensitive data.
