CVE-2022-45436Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated browser script execution via reflected help parameter

Published Feb 15, 2023 · Updated Mar 18, 2025

Reflected XSS in Pandora FMS 765 allows remote authenticated users to execute script in another user's browser through a crafted URL. The network-map help request reflects the attacker-controlled b parameter into the response without neutralizing executable markup. A manager-privileged account must create the URL and another user must visit it, exposing that user's browser session data.
