Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionGitHub Advisory
FOG is a free open-source cloning/imaging/rescue suite/inventory management system. Prior to 1.5.10.1812, the listing tables on multiple management pages (Host, Storage, Group, Image, Printer, Snapin) are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), due to insufficient server-side parameter sanitization in record creations/updates and a lack of HTML escaping in listing tables. Version 1.5.10.1812 patches the issue.
AnalysisAI
Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) in FOG Project versions prior to 1.5.10.1812 allows authenticated high-privilege administrators to inject malicious scripts into management pages (Host, Storage, Group, Image, Printer, Snapin) through unsanitized record creation/update parameters, which are then executed when other administrators view the listing tables. The vulnerability requires administrative access and user interaction to trigger, resulting in potential session hijacking, credential theft, or lateral movement within the management interface.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability stems from a classic two-stage XSS attack: insufficient server-side input validation (CWE-79) during record creation and updates allows malicious HTML/JavaScript to be stored in the database, combined with missing output encoding in the listing table rendering. FOG Project is a web-based cloning and inventory management system that processes user input from multiple management forms. The flaw exists in the application layer where form data is persisted without sanitization and retrieved without HTML entity encoding, enabling script execution in the browser context of other authenticated users accessing the same listing pages.
RemediationAI
Upgrade FOG Project to version 1.5.10.1812 or later, which patches the vulnerability by implementing server-side input sanitization and HTML escaping in listing table output. The fix addresses both the root causes: validation during record creation/update and proper entity encoding during display. Administrators should prioritize this update to remove the persistent XSS payloads.
