VAR-200901-0123
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2023-12-18 12:11Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in index.php in Check Point Connectra NGX R62 HFA_01 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the dir parameter. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information. Connectra NGX is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input data. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may help the attacker steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks. Connectra NGX R62 HFA_01, Hotfix 601, Builds 006 and 014 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
