MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Opengear console server firmware versions prior to 4.5.0
Description
The issue is related to a stored XSS vulnerability in the serial port logging feature. If a malicious user sends crafted text to a serial port with logging enabled, the text will be replayed when the logs are viewed. Exploitation requires access to the serial port and/or console server.
Recommendations
For Opengear console server firmware versions prior to 4.5.0, update to version 4.5.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling serial port logging until a patch is available. Restrict access to the serial port and console server to minimize the risk of exploitation.
