Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Improper Neutralization of Script-Related HTML Tags in a Web Page (Basic XSS) (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-42817)

CWE-ID: CWE-80 - Improper Neutralization of Script-Related HTML Tags in a Web Page (Basic XSS)

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary script code in the administrator's browser.

The vulnerability exists due to cross-site scripting in the translations dialog box when processing translation values containing format specifiers. A remote user can inject a crafted translation string to execute arbitrary script code in the administrator's browser.

The issue is related to translation values including "%s" being parsed by sprintf() instead of being displayed literally, and exploitation requires access to translations.
