AI Analysis

Impact

The IRIS web application version 2.4.26 contains a stored cross‑site scripting flaw in the custom attributes feature. A script entered into a custom attribute is persisted and later rendered in the browsers of any user who views that attribute, allowing execution of arbitrary JavaScript in the victim’s browser session.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the DFIR Iris Web application. The documented affected release is 2.4.26; the issue may also exist in earlier or unpatched releases. The custom attribute functionality is the component that is vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.6 indicates a high severity vulnerability. The EPSS score of less than 1 % suggests that exploitation is currently unlikely. The flaw is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Based on the description, the likely attack vector involves submitting malicious code through the web interface’s custom attribute input, which is then served unchanged to other users’ browsers. Without mitigation, the flaw could enable arbitrary script execution in the context of the victim’s session.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply an available vendor patch or upgrade to a newer DFIR Iris Web release that contains the XSS fix once it is released.
  • Sanitize or escape all input for custom attributes so that any embedded script is rendered harmless.
  • Limit or disable the ability to edit custom attributes for untrusted users until a fix is deployed.
