Discussion

Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS CVE-2017-9459 HTML Injection Vulnerability

Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

Successful exploits will result in the execution of arbitrary attacker-supplied HTML and script code in the context of the affected application, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or control how the page is rendered to the user. Other attacks are also possible.

PAN-OS 6.1.17 and prior, PAN-OS 7.0.15 and prior, PAN-OS 7.1.10 and prior, PAN-OS 8.0.2 and prior are vulnerable.
