Stored script execution via unsanitized watch-list name
Published Aug 24, 2025 · Updated Aug 25, 2025
Stored XSS in Scada-LTS 2.7.8.0 and 2.7.8.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript via a crafted watch-list name. The watch_list.shtm handler stores the name value without adequate validation or sanitization and later renders it in the interface. An account permitted to create or edit watchlists is required, and the payload runs when another account holder opens the affected entry or related menu, enabling actions within the victim's browser context.
