A persistent cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the On-device Web Access potentially allows an unauthenticated attacker to embed JavaScript in the device management interface.
What What happened? On-device Web Access (ODWA) is the interface that allows users to manage their Sophos UTM devices via a web browser. An attacker could exploit a persistent XSS vulnerability in ODWA to embed scripts on the device management interface. How to fix it? Upgrade to version 9.710. What next? If you are not sure whether your installation has been upgraded to version 9.710, contact Sophos Support.

Persistent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability

A persistent cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the On-device Web Access potentially allows an unauthenticated attacker to embed JavaScript in the device management interface. The vulnerability exists because of a failure to properly sanitize user input when handling parameters that are being used to create links. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute JavaScript code on the device management interface.
