Impact
The vulnerability is a stored cross‑site scripting flaw (CWE-79) in the resolver_url parameter of luci-app-https-dns-proxy that allows authenticated users to inject active HTML. When an administrator views the HTTPS DNS Proxy status page, the resolver URL is rendered as raw HTML and executes injected JavaScript in the administrator’s browser origin.
Affected Systems
The affected product is the luci-app-https-dns-proxy component of the OpenWrt luci web interface. No specific version numbers are listed; the flaw applies to any unpatched installation of luci-app-https-dns-proxy.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score is 6.8, indicating a moderate severity, and the EPSS score is not available. The flaw requires authentication to inject the payload, so it is likely limited to users with administrative privileges, but once triggered it can execute arbitrary JavaScript under the administrator’s browser context, potentially compromising session integrity and confidentiality. The vulnerability is not currently listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
