Operator session hijacking via stored FTP fields
Published Oct 14, 2024 · Updated Mar 24, 2025
Stored cross-site scripting in Automatic Systems Maintenance SlimLane build 29565 allows remote attackers to hijack operator sessions. FtpConfig.php stores unencoded host, user, or password values and renders them when the FTP configuration page is opened, executing injected JavaScript. Network access is sufficient to plant a payload without authentication, but execution requires an operator to view the page; the script can act in that operator's session or capture session material.
