Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.

1) Stored cross-site scripting

EUVDB-ID: #VU24356

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 2.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7106

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in the "description" parameter. A remote attacker can permanently inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.

This vulnerability affects the following files:

  • data_sources.php
  • color_templates_item.php
  • graphs.php
  • graph_items.php
  • lib/api_automation.php
  • user_admin.php
  • user_group_admin.php

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
