Reflected XSS via crafted services-page link
Published Mar 9, 2022 · Updated Nov 3, 2025
Reflected XSS in Zabbix Frontend 4.0.0 through 4.0.38, 5.0.0 through 5.0.20, and 5.4.0 through 5.4.10 allows remote authenticated users to run script. The services page reflects JavaScript embedded in a crafted link into the victim’s browser, but the responsible parameter and encoding failure are undisclosed. Execution requires victim interaction and knowledge of the victim’s periodically changing, difficult-to-predict CSRF token; the script can modify the page in that user’s session.
