User-triggered script execution via malicious link
Published Mar 27, 2023 · Updated Jan 17, 2025
Cross-site scripting in SAUTER Controls modu525 allows remote attackers to execute JavaScript through a malicious link. CISA has not published the affected moduWeb endpoint or the input-handling operation that places attacker-controlled content into the target's security context. Exploitation requires an unauthenticated attacker to persuade a user to open the link, after which the script can read or alter data available to that user's browser session.
