Details

This file disclosure vulnerability allows non-login users to download local files from the ServiceDesk Plus, ServiceDesk Plus MSP and SupportCenter Plus server machines by sending a crafted email for ticket creation. The same vulnerability affects AssetExplorer too which falls under medium severity since it needs authentication to exploit.

We fixed this issue by adding additional checks to process the email content to avoid the local file disclosure vulnerability in ServiceDesk Plus, ServiceDesk Plus MSP, SupportCenter Plus and AssetExplorer.
