Published Apr 21, 2026 · updated Jun 17, 2026

FreeScout is a free self-hosted help desk and shared mailbox. Prior to version 1.8.215, when is enabled, direct conversation view correctly blocks users who are neither the assignee nor the creator. The 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.
