CVE-2025-53883Network attack vector

Authenticated script execution via reflected search input

Published Oct 30, 2025 · Updated Oct 30, 2025

Reflected XSS in SUSE Manager Server allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript through crafted search-field input. SUSE identifies the spacewalk-java search fields as the locus but has not published the affected endpoints or missing output-encoding operation. A low-privileged session and passive interaction by another user are required; successful injection runs in that user's browser context.
