Session hijacking via proxy-loaded remote scripts
Published Jan 6, 2026 · Updated Jan 6, 2026
Remote script inclusion in FIBARO Home Center 2, Home Center 3, and Home Center Lite 5.021.38 and earlier allows remote attackers to hijack sessions. The undocumented /api/proxy endpoint accepts an attacker-controlled url GET parameter and returns external JavaScript or VBScript for execution in a user's browser. Exploitation requires a user to open a crafted proxy URL; execution in the Home Center origin permits session theft or page-content manipulation.
