Credential theft via unescaped SNMP template fields
Published Sep 1, 2026 · Updated Sep 2, 2026
Stored XSS in LibreNMS 26.2.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to run JavaScript in administrators' browsers via crafted SNMP data. Legacy PHP templates directly echo database fields populated by SNMP polling, including BGP descriptions, VRF values, process data, and SLA tags, without HTML escaping. Exploitation requires device management access or a rogue enrolled SNMP device and an administrator to view an affected page, exposing SNMP credentials and CSRF tokens.
