Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 25/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.33% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: duck-organization quest-bot 1.0.3.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to duck-organization quest-bot 1.0.3 or later.

Quest Bot is an opensource modern Discord Bot built for moderation, utilities and support. Prior to version 1.0.3, a normal user can create a ticket with a reason containing @everyone, @here, user mentions, or role mentions. When the ticket is created, the bot posts the attacker-controlled reason into the new ticket channel without suppressing mentions. If the bot has permission to use those mentions, the attacker can make the bot ping staff or everyone with access to the ticket channel. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.3.
