CVE-2025-34315Public exploitNetwork attack vector

JavaScript execution via unescaped remote syslog address

Published Oct 28, 2025 · Updated Oct 29, 2025

Stored XSS in IPFire before 2.29 (Core Update 198) allows remote authenticated users to run JavaScript via a crafted syslog address. The logs.cgi/config.dat handler stores REMOTELOG_ADDR in logging settings, then inserts it unescaped into an HTML input value. An authenticated management user must save the address, and the script runs when another user views Log Settings in the same origin.
