Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Status Board versions prior to 1.1.82
Description
The issue concerns a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. It is caused by insufficient sanitization of the
safeDashboard variable, which is concatenated to a printed error message by the renderDashboard() function. If the safeDashboard variable is controlled by user input, it allows attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim's browser.Recommendations
Upgrade to version 1.1.82 to receive a patch.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting user input to the
safeDashboard variable until the issue is resolved. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
