MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | The attacker must have network adjacency to the FOG server's HTTP service (AV:A) - |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.6 (Medium) reflects an adjacent network vector (AV:A), no authentication required to submit payloads (PR:N), and a mandatory administrator interaction trigger (UI:R). The adjacent-only vector is a material constraint - the attacker must be able to reach the FOG server's HTTP endpoint, which is typically on an internal imaging VLAN; however, if FOG is dual-homed or exposed to a broader LAN, the realistic attack surface expands significantly. The attack is asynchronous: the attacker submits the payload and waits for an admin to render the Group Inventory tab, creating a persistent threat rather than a one-shot exploit. No EPSS score was provided in the input data, KEV listing is not confirmed, and no POC has been referenced in available advisory materials. The limited C:L/I:L impact ratings reflect the browser-context nature of XSS - direct server-side data access is not implied. The MAC address prerequisite is a minor bar, since MAC addresses are discoverable via passive ARP observation or active LAN scanning. Real-world priority is moderate for internet-adjacent FOG deployments and lower for strictly air-gapped imaging networks. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker on the same network segment as the FOG server performs ARP scanning to discover the MAC address of a registered imaging host, then sends a crafted HTTP POST to |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 21, 2026
Stored cross-site scripting in FOG Project's inventory pipeline allows an unauthenticated network-adjacent attacker who knows any registered host's MAC address to inject persistent JavaScript payloads into the FOG database via POST requests to /service/inventory.php. When an administrator opens the Group Inventory tab, the unescaped payload executes in their browser, enabling session hijacking or unauthorized admin-level actions. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; patches are available in versions 1.5.10.1832 (stable) and 1.6.0-beta.2313 (beta).
RemediationAI
Upgrade FOG Project to version 1.5.10.1832 (stable) or 1.6.0-beta.2313 (beta), which introduce HTML escaping in the buildRow() rendering path; details are at https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/security/advisories/GHSA-fqgf-j2gh-92cm. If immediate upgrade is not feasible, restrict POST access to /service/inventory.php via firewall ACLs or web server location blocks to allow only IP addresses of known imaging hosts - this prevents unauthenticated payload injection but will block inventory collection from any unallowlisted host, so the allowlist must be maintained carefully. As a secondary control, limit admin access to the Group Inventory tab to sessions originating from trusted management networks, reducing the window in which a stored payload can fire.

Technical ContextAI · show details
FOG Project (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:fogproject:fogproject:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is a PHP-based open-source network imaging and inventory management system widely used in educational institutions and SMB IT departments. The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation). Specifically, the buildRow() method in fogpage.class.php uses PHP's str_replace() to substitute database-sourced values into HTML table cell templates without applying any htmlspecialchars() or equivalent encoding. The /service/inventory.php endpoint accepts unauthenticated POST requests carrying inventory fields such as sysproduct and sysserial, which are designed to be submitted by FOG imaging agents on the network and are stored verbatim in the database. Because no sanitization occurs at either ingestion or render time, attacker-controlled values survive to execution when rendered in the admin panel's Group Inventory tab.

AV:A reflects the internally-facing inventory endpoint; PR:N because no authentication is required to POST inventory data; UI:R because the XSS payload only fires when an admin views the Group Inventory tab.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionNVD
FOG is a free open-source cloning/imaging/rescue suite/inventory management system. Prior to versions 1.5.10.1832 and 1.6.0-beta.2313, the buildRow() method in fogpage.class.php substitutes data values into HTML table cell templates using str_replace() without any HTML escaping. An unauthenticated attacker who knows any registered host's MAC address can POST malicious inventory values (e.g. sysproduct, sysserial) to /service/inventory.php, which stores them in the database. When an administrator opens the Group Inventory tab, the payload renders as executable HTML/JavaScript in the admin's browser. Versions 1.5.10.1832 and 1.6.0-beta.2313 fix the issue.
