CVE-2026-53591

FreeScout

Description

FreeScout is a free help desk and shared inbox built with PHP-s Laravel framework. Prior to version 1.8.223, an unauthenticated attacker can inject messages into any existing support conversation by sending a single email to the helpdesk-s public address with a crafted `In-Reply-To` header. No credentials, tokens, or prior access are required. The injected message is rendered in the agent UI as a legitimate customer reply, the conversation is automatically reopened, and the `last_reply_from` field is set to the attacker-s identity. Version 1.8.223 contains a fix.
