Administrator-browser script execution via reflected endpoint input
Published Sep 13, 2023 · Updated Sep 24, 2024
Reflected XSS in Insider Threat Management Server before 7.14.3.69 allows remote authenticated users to run JavaScript in an administrator browser. The UpdateInstalledSoftware web-console endpoint reflects attacker-controlled input without adequate neutralization; Proofpoint has not disclosed the affected parameter or implementation. Exploitation requires an authenticated administrator to induce a different web-console administrator to process the crafted request, enabling script execution in that victim's browser.
