CVE-2021-46680

Browser script execution via module name

Published Aug 5, 2022 · Updated Jun 2, 2026

Cross-site scripting in Pandora FMS 756 and earlier allows local users to execute JavaScript via a crafted module name. Published records identify the module form's name field but do not disclose the code path or the missing output-encoding operation. The CNA assessment requires high privileges and user interaction; execution is confined to a viewing user's browser context, where page data and actions are exposed.
