pfSense 2.4.4-p1 | Cross-Site Scripting
The pfSense software version 2.4.4-p1 is vulnerable to multiple instances of cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. These attacks can be reflected or stored. The first reflected XSS vulnerability is found in the 'webguiproto' parameter of the 'system_advanced_admin.php' page. The second reflected XSS vulnerability is found in the 'wan' parameter of the 'interfaces_assign.php' page. The first stored XSS vulnerability is found in the 'dscp' parameter of the 'firewall_rules_edit.php' page with the 'if=FloatingRules' parameter. The second stored XSS vulnerability is found in the 'tag' parameter of the 'firewall_rules_edit.php' page with the 'if=FloatingRules' parameter.
Mitigation:
To mitigate the risk of these XSS vulnerabilities, it is recommended to sanitize user input and implement proper input validation in the affected pages. Additionally, implementing a content security policy (CSP) can help prevent XSS attacks.
