Openfiler Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

Openfiler is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack due to inadequate input sanitization. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by injecting arbitrary script code through user-supplied data. This can lead to the execution of malicious scripts in the browser of a targeted user, potentially allowing the attacker to steal authentication credentials and carry out further attacks.

Mitigation:

To mitigate this vulnerability, Openfiler should implement proper input validation and sanitization techniques. It is recommended to sanitize user-supplied data to prevent the execution of malicious scripts. Regular security updates should also be applied to address any potential security vulnerabilities.

Openfiler is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.

An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.
