Deeper analysis
CVE-2022-41441 is a set of reflected cross-site scripting flaws, tracked under CWE-79, that affect ReQlogic version 11.3. The issues reside in the POBatch and WaitDuration parameters and permit injection of arbitrary web scripts or HTML, producing a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.1.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can supply a crafted URL or request containing malicious payloads in the affected parameters; successful exploitation requires a victim user to interact with the link and results in script execution in the context of the ReQlogic application, enabling theft of session tokens or other client-side actions with changed scope.
Public references, including a detailed disclosure on okankurtulus.com.tr and Packet Storm entries, document the reflected XSS vectors but do not reference vendor patches or configuration work-arounds.
EPSS for the CVE rose from a low baseline to a recorded peak of 0.0931 before settling at the current value of 0.0623, indicating increased exploitation interest after public disclosure.
