Browser script execution via reflected port parameter
Published Jul 20, 2025 · Updated Jul 21, 2025
Reflected XSS in Huashengdun WebSSH 1.6.0 through 1.6.2 allows remote attackers to execute script via a crafted port URL. The login page copies the GET port value into its HTML response without validation or output encoding, so markup becomes executable browser content. Exploitation requires a victim to open the crafted link; resulting script runs in the WebSSH origin and can read or modify data available to that browser session.
