MediumCVSS 4.8
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Webmin through 2.670 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Shorewall and Shorewall6 modules' list.cgi, which renders table fields and COMMENT lines unescaped. Authenticated users with table edit permission can store JavaScript via savecmt.cgi or table entries that executes when other users, including root, view the list page.

Risk Assessment

This allows attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in victims' browsers, including root, potentially leading to session theft and account takeover.

Recommendation

Update Webmin to a version later than 2.670 and restrict table edit permissions in Shorewall modules.
