CVE-2023-49572Network attack vector

Stored XSS via unsanitized ODBC fields

Published May 24, 2024 · Updated May 21, 2025

Stored XSS in Flexense VX Search Enterprise 10.2.14 and DiskPulse Enterprise 10.4.18 allows remote attackers to store scripts. The /setup_odbc handler stores odbc_data_source, odbc_user, and odbc_password values without neutralizing JavaScript for later page output. The request requires no privileges, but execution requires a user to load the affected page, exposing that browser session to script actions and disruption.
