Technical details

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Endian Firewall version 3.3.25 and earlier. The flaw is located in the /cgi-bin/salearn.cgi component, which fails to properly neutralize user-supplied input in the 'remark', 'user', 'ham', and 'spam' parameters. An authenticated attacker with low privileges can submit a crafted request containing malicious JavaScript. This script is stored on the server and executed in the context of any user (typically an administrator) who later views the affected page. This can lead to session hijacking, unauthorized configuration changes, or further exploitation of the administrative interface.
