Status Board vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting before v1.1.82

  • Disclosed: 23.09.2019
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 10:22

Versions of status-board prior to 1.1.82 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting. The renderDashboard() function concatenates the safeDashboard variable to the printed error message with insufficient sanitization. If this variable is controlled by user input it allows attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim's browser.

Recommendation

Upgrade to version 1.1.82 to receive a patch.
