CVE-2025-34303
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
IPFire versions prior to 2.29 (Core Update 198) contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that allows an authenticated attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript code through the IGNORE_ENTRY_REMARK parameter when adding a whitelisted host. When a whitelisted host is added, an HTTP POST request is sent to the Request-URI /cgi-bin/ids.cgi and the remark for the entry is provided in the IGNORE_ENTRY_REMARK parameter. The value of this parameter is stored and later rendered in the web interface without proper sanitization or encoding, allowing injected scripts to execute in the context of other users who view the affected whitelist entry.

"value": "Las versiones de IPFire anteriores a 2.29 (Core Update 198) contienen una vulnerabilidad de cross-site scripting (XSS) almacenado que permite a un atacante autenticado inyectar código JavaScript arbitrario a través del parámetro IGNORE_ENTRY_REMARK al añadir un host en la lista blanca. Cuando se añade un host en la lista blanca, se envía una solicitud HTTP POST a la Request-URI /cgi-bin/ids.cgi y la observación para la entrada se proporciona en el parámetro IGNORE_ENTRY_REMARK. El valor de este parámetro se almacena y posteriormente se renderiza en la interfaz web sin una sanitización o codificación adecuadas, permitiendo que los scripts inyectados se ejecuten en el contexto de otros usuarios que visualizan la entrada de la lista blanca afectada."
