CVE-2023-31153Network attack vector

Authenticated script execution via undisclosed web input

Published May 10, 2023 · Updated Jan 24, 2025

Cross-site scripting in the SEL RTAC web interface allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary script code in affected browsers. Public advisories do not identify the affected request, input field, or output-encoding failure in the web management interface. Exploitation requires high-privilege authentication and user interaction; successful script execution can read or alter browser-accessible data and interrupt the interface.
