Technical details
A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in StoneFly Storage Concentrator (SC) and Storage Concentrator Virtual Machine (SCVM) prior to version 8.0.4.22. The vulnerability is located in the handling of 404 error pages, where the application echoes back unsanitized user-supplied content from the URL. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by crafting a malicious URL and enticing an authenticated user to visit it. Successful exploitation allows the execution of arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the victim's browser session, potentially leading to session cookie theft or unauthorized application actions. StoneFly recommends upgrading to version 8.0.4.29 or later to remediate this and other related vulnerabilities.
