AI Analysis

Impact

Endian Firewall versions 3.3.25 and earlier contain a stored cross‑site scripting flaw in the remark field of the /manage/vpnauthentication/user/ endpoint. The flaw permits an attacker who has authenticated to the firewall to submit malicious JavaScript that is stored by the server and automatically executed when any user views the affected page. Execution of this payload in the victim’s browser can enable session hijacking, data theft, or defacement, compromising the confidentiality and integrity of the user session data.

Affected Systems

Endian Firewall is affected with all versions listed in the CVE, including 2.1.2, 2.4, and 3.3.25. Any deployment of those firmware releases is vulnerable until a patch is applied.

Risk and Exploitability

The flaw scores a CVSS base of 5.1, indicating a moderate severity, and is not yet listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. An attacker must first authenticate to the system, which limits the exposure to users with administrative privileges or compromised credentials. Without an authenticated session, the vulnerability cannot be triggered.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Endian Firewall to a version released after 3.3.25 that contains the vendor’s fix for the stored XSS flaw.
  • If a patch is not immediately available, restrict access to the /manage/vpnauthentication/user/ endpoint and monitor for malicious remark entries.
  • Implement a web application firewall rule or input sanitization that blocks or escapes untrusted characters in the remark field.
