Stored XSS via unchecked description fields
Published Feb 24, 2023 · Updated Mar 11, 2025
Stored XSS in ABB NE843_S and Infinity DC Power Plant web pages allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript through descriptions. Alarm and rectifier description fields accept arbitrary text without rejecting JavaScript, so a saved payload runs when the affected web page is rendered. Exploitation requires network access, an authenticated session to store the payload, and a user to view the affected page; the script acts within that user's web session.
