Descriptions

Certain dashboard widgets on Trend Micro Apex Central (on-premise) are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks that may allow an attacker to achieve remote code execution on affected servers.

Please note this vulnerability is similar, but not identical to CVE-2023-52328.

Ciertos widgets del panel de Trend Micro Apex Central (local) son vulnerables a ataques de cross-site scripting (XSS) que pueden permitir a un atacante lograr la ejecución remota de código en los servidores afectados. Tenga en cuenta que esta vulnerabilidad es similar, pero no idéntica, a CVE-2023-52328.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Trend Micro Apex Central. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of the multiple parameters provided to the modDLPViolationCnt_drildown.php component. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can lead to the injection of arbitrary script. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute script in the context of the current user.
