Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FreeScout versions prior to 1.8.178

Description The issue is related to the deserialization of untrusted data due to insufficient validation, allowing arbitrary code execution. This occurs when a string with a serialized object is passed through the set function and deserialization happens when getting an option through the get method.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.8.178, update to version 1.8.178 to patch the vulnerability. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the set and get methods to minimize the risk of exploitation.
