Using the installed program names of the computer as a vector, the local administrator can execute code on the Manage Engine ServiceDesk administrator side. At \"Asset Home > Server > <workstation> > software\" the administrator of ManageEngine can control what software is installed on the workstation. This table shows all the installed program names in the Software column. In this field, a remote attacker can inject malicious code in order to execute it when the ManageEngine administrator visualizes this page.","published":"2020-05-14T14:15:12.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T02:19:40.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"cve@mitre.org","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":6.1,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N"},"cwe":["CWE-79"],"affected":["zohocorp/manageengine servicedesk plus"],"epss":{"score":0.06301,"percentile":0.93567,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":1,"verified":false,"firstPublished":"2020-05-15","source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[{"edbId":48473,"kind":"exploit","title":"ManageEngine Service Desk 10.0 - Cross-Site Scripting","url":"https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/48473","sourceUrl":"https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb/-/blob/main/exploits/java/webapps/48473.txt","file":"exploits/java/webapps/48473.txt","published":"2020-05-15","added":"2020-05-15","updated":"2020-05-15","author":"Felipe Molina","type":"webapps","platform":"java","port":null,"verified":false,"codes":["CVE-2019-15083"],"tags":null,"aliases":null,"applicationUrl":null,"screenshotUrl":null,"referenceUrl":null}]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"A public exploit is published in Exploit-DB, so the technical barrier is gone even though the severity is medium and EPSS is 6.3%.
