CVE-2026-5332Network attack vector

Authenticated script injection via unescaped param

Published Apr 2, 2026 · Updated Apr 2, 2026

Cross-site scripting in XPanel 1.0.0 WAF Firewall allows remote authenticated users to inject script through the param argument to /demo.php. The /demo.php handler places the attacker-controlled param value into generated page content without adequate neutralization. An authenticated panel session and a user who loads the crafted response are required; exploitation changes page content in that user’s browser.
