CVE-2024-28772Network attack vector

Credential disclosure via stored Web UI script injection

Published Jul 25, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Stored XSS in IBM Directory Integrator 7.2.0 and Verify Directory Integrator 10.0.0 allows remote attackers to expose credentials via the Web UI. IBM states that the Web UI stores arbitrary JavaScript but does not identify the accepting field or the output view that renders it without neutralization. Exploitation requires a trusted-session user to load the affected content; the resulting script execution can disclose credentials and alter Web UI behavior.
