Fortinet FortiOS 5.x < 5.0.6 XSS

medium Nessus Plugin ID 73525

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability.

Description

The remote host is running FortiOS prior to 5.0.6. It is, therefore, affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability due to a failure to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'mkey' parameter in the '/firewall/schedule/recurrdlg' URL of the web UI. An attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the end-user's browser.

Solution

Upgrade to Fortinet FortiOS 5.0.6 or later.
