CVE-2024-50545: DataMentor lets attackers run scripts in users' browsers

CVE-2024-50545 · published 1 year ago
Summary

The DataMentor web interface does not properly clean user-supplied data before showing it on a page, allowing a malicious script to be injected. An attacker could use this to steal information, hijack sessions, or display false content to users. Update DataMentor to version 1.8 or later, or apply the vendor's recommended patch, and validate all input before it is displayed.
