Iris is a web collaborative platform aiming to help incident responders sharing technical details during investigations. A stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been identified in iris-web, affecting multiple locations . The vulnerability in allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts into the application, which are then executed when a user visits the affected locations. This can lead to unauthorized access, data theft, or other malicious activities. An attacker need to be authenticated on the application to exploit this vulnerability. The issue was patched in version 2.2.1 of iris-web.
The product receives input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special characters such as "<", ">", and "&" that could be interpreted as web-scripting elements when they are sent to a downstream component that processes web pages.
The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
