Authenticated script execution via stored XSS

Published Jan 28, 2025 · Updated Mar 13, 2025

Stored XSS in the web interface of HPE Aruba Networking Fabric Composer 7.0.0 through 7.1.0 allows remote authenticated users to run script code. HPE has not disclosed which interface field stores the attacker-controlled content or where output encoding fails before the content is rendered. An authenticated account can plant the payload, and execution occurs in a victim's browser within the compromised interface, enabling access to interface data and actions available to that victim.
