CVE-2026-41190

FreeScout has assigned-only visibility bypass via save_draft that allows hidden conversation draft injection

Published Apr 21, 2026 · Updated Apr 21, 2026

FreeScout is a free self-hosted help desk and shared mailbox. Prior to version 1.8.215, when APP_SHOW_ONLY_ASSIGNED_CONVERSATIONS is enabled, direct conversation view correctly blocks users who are neither the assignee nor the creator. The save_draft AJAX path is weaker. A direct POST can create a draft inside a conversation that is hidden in the UI. Version 1.8.215 fixes the vulnerability.
