| Impact | The CVSS v4.0 score of 2.1 reflects low real-world risk despite the XSS classification. While CVSS vector shows attack vector Network (AV:N) and low attack complexity (AC:L), critical mitigating factors significantly reduce exploitability: authentication is required (PR:L), attack preparation time is needed (AT:P), and user interaction is mandatory (UI:P). The impact scope is isolated (S:N), affecting only low confidentiality and integrity with no availability impact (VA:N). The EPSS score is not provided, but the combination of low CVSS, no reported active exploitation (KEV status not indicated), and lack of public exploit code suggests this is a lower-priority vulnerability despite its XSS classification. Organizations should prioritize this below critical or high-severity vulnerabilities, but it should still be addressed in normal patch cycles given the stored nature of the XSS. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An authenticated user with low-level monitoring privileges submits a crafted event comment containing embedded JavaScript, such as a payload that exfiltrates session cookies. When another user (such as an administrator) views the event details page, the injected script executes in their browser, potentially capturing their session token or forcing them to perform administrative actions on behalf of the attacker. The exploit requires the victim to actively view the compromised event, making it suitable for targeted attacks against specific administrators. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 13, 2026
Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in Pandora FMS versions 777 through 800 allows authenticated users with low privileges to inject malicious scripts via event comments, which execute in the browsers of other users viewing those comments. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 2.1 with low confidentiality and integrity impact, requiring user interaction and attack preparation time to exploit. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Pandora FMS to a version released after 800. Users unable to immediately upgrade should restrict comment functionality to trusted administrators only or disable event comments entirely until patching is completed. Apply the official security patch from Pandora FMS by reviewing the vendor advisory at https://pandorafms.com/en/security/common-vulnerabilities-and-exposures/ for the specific patched version number. Additionally, implement input validation on the server side to reject or sanitize HTML and JavaScript characters in event comment submissions, and ensure output encoding is applied when rendering comments in web pages.

Technical ContextAI · show details
This vulnerability stems from improper input neutralization (CWE-79) in the web page generation logic of Pandora FMS, specifically in the event comments feature. The root cause is the failure to properly encode or sanitize user-supplied input before rendering it in HTML responses. Pandora FMS is an open-source monitoring and management platform written primarily in PHP; the vulnerability lies in the comment processing mechanism that allows authenticated users to submit event comments without adequate output encoding. When these comments are displayed to other users, the injected JavaScript payload executes in their browser context, potentially allowing session hijacking, credential theft, or malicious actions performed on behalf of the victim user.
