CVE-2014-0183Network attack vector

Browser script execution via unescaped system names

Published Jan 2, 2020 · Updated Aug 6, 2024

Stored cross-site scripting in Katello shipped with Red Hat Subscription Asset Manager 1.4 allows remote attackers to execute script in a user's browser. Registration accepts HTML in a system name, and the system information page interprets that stored value as markup instead of safely encoding it. A victim must view the affected information page, where the injected script runs in that user's browser context.
