The scanner checks for vulnerabilities in the Zhike Help software, which is widely used for providing online assistance and customer support via web interfaces. Often implemented by customer service teams and IT departments, it is a crucial tool in business operations needing efficient customer interaction. Zhike Help supports various communication channels and offers a user-friendly interface for managing customer inquiries. Continuously monitoring such software is essential because many sensitive interactions occur. Businesses rely on it to gather customer insights and improve client satisfaction. Ensuring its security is paramount to maintaining user trust and operational integrity.

The scanner detects Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities within the website's content security policy settings. These vulnerabilities can allow attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages that are viewed by other users. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to session tokens, sensitive information, or even the execution of arbitrary scripts on users' systems. The vulnerability primarily affects how web content is permitted by the browser, failing to strictly enforce security measures. Attackers exploiting this can alter the website's behavior or content without user consent. Proper detection and remediation can prevent significant security breaches.

Technical details show that the vulnerable endpoint allows script injection due to improper content security policy (CSP) implementation. The affected parameter involves script inclusion that the CSP does not appropriately restrict, leading to possible execution of injected scripts. The scripts can be inserted via universally accessible URLs, making the system susceptible to XSS attacks. Detailed analysis shows this vulnerability can be leveraged using GET requests. It's crucial for administrators to properly configure CSP headers to mitigate such risks. Regular security checks and updates should be enforced to prevent unnecessary exposure.

Exploitation of this vulnerability could result in various adverse effects, including unauthorized data access, session hijacking, and the execution of unwanted actions on behalf of the victim. Attackers could also manipulate the website content or behavior, leading to a loss of data integrity or availability. The potential for significant reputational damage could affect user perception and trust in the affected organization. Financial repercussions cannot be ignored due to potential data theft or fraud. Ensuring strict CSP configurations can drastically minimize these risks.
