Summary

In OpenNMS Horizon, versions opennms-1-0-stable through opennms-27.1.0-1; OpenNMS Meridian, versions meridian-foundation-2015.1.0-1 through meridian-foundation-2019.1.18-1; meridian-foundation-2020.1.0-1 through meridian-foundation-2020.1.6-1 are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting since there is no validation on the input being sent to the `name` parameter in `noticeWizard` endpoint. Due to this flaw an authenticated attacker could inject arbitrary script and trick other admin users into downloading malicious files.

Patch / fix

  • maven org.opennms:opennms 27.1.1
  • opennms horizon 27.1.1
  • opennms meridian 2019.1.19, 2020.1.7
