CVE-2023-1212Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Stored script execution via unescaped widget settings

Published Mar 6, 2023 · Updated Mar 6, 2025

Stored XSS in phpIPAM before 1.5.2 allows remote authenticated users to run script in a dashboard browser through widget settings. The dashboard renderer inserts stored widget size, file, and title values into HTML without escape_input(), while noxss_html() also permits object elements. An account able to alter widget settings is required; rendering the affected dashboard executes script with access to browser-visible data and actions.
