DescriptionCVE.org

Netbox Community 4.1.7 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS) via the maintenance banner` in maintenance mode.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

NetBox Community 4.1.7 contains a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the maintenance banner that could allow attackers to inject malicious scripts affecting users who access the application. This vulnerability poses a risk to organizations managing network infrastructure through NetBox, as compromised sessions could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive network documentation and configurations.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Deploy Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to filter and sanitize maintenance banner inputs; restrict administrative access to maintenance mode features via network segmentation; disable maintenance mode if not actively required; implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to prevent inline script execution; enforce multi-factor authentication for all NetBox administrative accounts; monitor and log all maintenance banner modifications and access attempts.
