AnalysisAI
Stored XSS in WatchGuard Fireware OS's SIP Proxy module enables a high-privileged attacker to plant persistent malicious JavaScript that executes in the browsers of other privileged users who access affected management interface pages. Covering Fireware OS versions 12.0 through 12.12, 12.5 through 12.5.18, and 2025.1 through 2026.2, this CVE is explicitly disclosed as an additional, previously unmitigated attack path for CVE-2025-6947 - meaning organizations that applied the prior patch may incorrectly believe their exposure is closed. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The attacker must hold a high-privileged account (PR:H) on the WatchGuard Fireware OS management interface - standard read-only or operator-level accounts are insufficient to inject into the SIP Proxy module. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 4.8 (Medium) accurately reflects the constrained real-world risk. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who has obtained or holds a high-privileged WatchGuard administrator account injects a crafted JavaScript payload into a SIP Proxy module configuration field or data display surface that is subsequently stored and rendered in the Fireware OS management interface. When a second administrator authenticates and navigates to the affected management page, their browser silently executes the stored script, potentially exfiltrating session tokens, authentication cookies, or management credentials to an attacker-controlled endpoint. … |
| Remediation | Consult the WatchGuard advisory WGSA-2026-00019 at https://www.watchguard.com/wgrd-psirt/advisory/wgsa-2026-00019 for the upgrade path; exact patched version numbers are not independently confirmed from available input data and must be sourced directly from the advisory. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
