Descriptions

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in information popups in Foreman before 1.10.0 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) global parameters, (2) smart class parameters, or (3) smart variables in the (a) host or (b) hostgroup edit forms.

Múltiples vulnerabilidades de XSS en popups de información en Foreman en versiones anteriores a 1.10.0 permite a atacantes remotos inyectar secuencias de comandos web o HTML a través de (1) parámetros globales, (2) parámetros de clase inteligente o (3) variables inteligentes en formularios de edición (a) host o (b) hostgroup.

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the smart class parameters/variables field. By sending a specially crafted request to Satellite, a remote, authenticated attacker could embed HTML content into the stored data, allowing them to inject malicious content into the web page that is used to view that data.
