Summary

BigBlueButton prior to version 3.0.19 does not sanitize user input in public chat during recording playback. This allows a malicious actor to carry out an XSS attack that activates on anyone replaying the recording. The issue has been fixed in version 3.0.19.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can inject malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of all users replaying the recording, potentially leading to data theft or session hijacking.

Recommendation

Update BigBlueButton to version 3.0.19 or later.
