Summary

Foxit Workspace versions before 2026-11-6 are affected. A stored cross-site scripting flaw (CWE-79) in the file share preview lets a script embedded in a crafted file run in the application's origin. An attacker who shares such a file with a user can trigger the script when the victim opens or previews it, which can expose locally stored credentials to theft.
