17
FAUCET Score

CVE-2005-3895 describes a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting Open Ticket Request System (OTRS) versions 1.0.0 through 1.3.2 and 2.0.0 through 2.0.3. When the AttachmentDownloadType is set to "inline," the system improperly renders text/html email attachments as HTML in the browser when a queue moderator attempts to download them. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary web script or HTML within the moderator's browser. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.8, indicating a medium severity. It can be exploited remotely over the network with medium attack complexity, requiring no authentication. Successful exploitation could lead to partial compromise of confidentiality and integrity, allowing attackers to steal session cookies or deface the OTRS interface. There is no evidence of active exploitation, and no public exploit code is available in Metasploit, Nuclei, or ExploitDB. Community discussion and media coverage for this CVE are minimal, with zero mentions or articles found.
