CVE-2025-9289Network attack vectorHinoki check available

Administrator-browser script execution via unsanitized parameter

Published Jan 22, 2026 · Updated Jan 23, 2026

Cross-site scripting in Omada Controllers before 6.0.0.24, 6.0.0.34, or 6.0.0.100 allows attackers to run JavaScript in an administrator's browser. A controller parameter is rendered without proper input sanitization, allowing attacker-controlled script content to reach the administrative web interface. Exploitation requires network positioning or impersonation of a trusted entity and an authenticated administrator's interaction; successful execution exposes browser-accessible sensitive information.
