Browser code execution via stored report content
Published Oct 21, 2022 · Updated Apr 17, 2025
Stored XSS in Aethon TUG Home Base Server before 24 allows remote attackers to execute scripts through Fleet Management Console reports. The Reports tab stores attacker-controlled content from new or edited reports without neutralizing it before rendering the content to console users. Exploitation requires no account, but a console user must view the stored report; script execution can hijack that browser session.
