of Librenms version 24.10.1 (https://github.com/librenms/librenms) allows remote attackers to inject malicious scripts. When a user views or interacts with the page displaying the data, the malicious script executes immediately, leading to potential unauthorized actions or data exposure.
Proof of Concept:
- Add a new device through the LibreNMS interface.
- Edit the newly created device and select the "ports" section.
- In the "Description" field, enter the following payload:
"><img src onerror="alert(1)">. - Save the changes.
- The XSS vulnerability is triggered when accessing the "ports" tab, and the payload is executed again when hovering over the modified value in the "Port" field.
Payload:
Executes:
The script execution vulnerability in the description field, as shown in the image, occurs at Line 63 of functions.inc.php
