Configuration and account modification via reflected XSS
Published Feb 16, 2024 · Updated Apr 24, 2025
Reflected XSS in NetApp StorageGRID before 11.8 allows remote attackers to alter configuration or user accounts through a crafted link. NetApp has not disclosed the affected request parameter or the output-encoding failure that reflects attacker-controlled content. Exploitation requires instance-specific information and a privileged user who follows the link; resulting script execution can view or modify configuration settings and add or modify accounts.
