Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2025-67823 is a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability, classified under CWE-79, affecting the Multimedia Email component in Mitel MiContact Center Business through version 10.2.0.10 and Mitel CX through version 1.1.0.1. The issue arises from insufficient input validation, which could enable script injection. Published on 2026-01-15, it has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N), indicating high severity due to network accessibility, low attack complexity, no required privileges, user interaction, changed scope, high confidentiality impact, low integrity impact, and no availability impact.

An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by crafting and sending a malicious email, provided the email channel is enabled in the affected systems. Exploitation requires victim user interaction, such as viewing the email in a browser or desktop client application, after which the attacker could execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's context. This may lead to theft of sensitive data like session cookies or credentials, though integrity and availability impacts are limited.

Mitel has issued security advisories addressing this vulnerability, available at https://www.mitel.com/support/security-advisories and specifically https://www.mitel.com/support/security-advisories/mitel-product-security-advisory-misa-2025-0010. Security practitioners should review these advisories for detailed mitigation guidance, including any available patches or workarounds.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SA-11 Developer Testing and Evaluation good match

Developer testing and evaluation can discover missing or incorrect input neutralization through targeted web-application tests.

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

Input validation directly enforces neutralization of untrusted data before it reaches web output generation.

SI-15 Information Output Filtering good match

Output filtering can catch or sanitize unneutralized script content before it is served to users.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly target introduction of XSS via coding standards/testing (mostly), yet the single broad outcome leaves many specific neutralization vectors unaddressed (partial).

PR.PS-02 partial match
prevents

Patching and EOL replacement can remediate known XSS instances in libraries or frameworks (partial) but do nothing to enforce input neutralization in application code (none).

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Secure-coding testing and automated code-analysis tools are applied to detect improper neutralization of script-related content during web-page generation.

A.5.6 Contact with special interest groups partial match
prevents

Knowledge exchange on emerging attack techniques and patches reduces the likelihood that cross-site scripting flaws remain unaddressed in deployed applications.

A.5.7 Threat intelligence partial match
prevents

Operational indicators of compromise for web-application attacks can be incorporated into WAF or input-filtering rules, lowering the likelihood that unsanitized data reaches the browser.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Requiring language-specific secure-coding standards and automated scanning during the SDLC catches missing output encoding or improper neutralization of untrusted data before the software reaches production.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure-coding standards, SAST scans and removal of insecure code samples together eliminate the failure to neutralize script content that produces cross-site scripting flaws.

A.8.7 Protection against malware none match
none

Webpage malware scanning and block-listing of known malicious sites reduce the likelihood that reflected or stored script payloads reach a user’s browser.
