Vesta Control Panel <= 0.9.8-15 - Persistent XSS Vulnerability
We can use user-agent information to attack website like this. First of all we change our user-agent and add some dangerous javascript code ( XSS etc. ) and then we request to one of the website on target server then it is saved on access.log by server so when Administrator reads it the javascript code works that we added our user-agent information.
Mitigation:
Ensure that user-agent information is properly sanitized and validated before being used.
