Script execution via unescaped item-page input
Published Mar 9, 2022 · Updated Nov 3, 2025
Reflected XSS in Zabbix Frontend 5.0.0 through 5.0.20, 5.4.0 through 5.4.10, and 6.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript. The item configuration page reflects attacker-controlled code from a crafted link into its HTML response without neutralizing it. A victim must open the link while the attacker knows the victim's changing CSRF token; the script can modify the page displayed in that session.
