CVE-2026-41200
STIG Manager has reflected XSS vulnerability in the Web App
Description

STIG Manager is an API and web client for managing Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIG) assessments of Information Systems. Versions 1.5.10 through 1.6.7 have a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the OIDC authentication error handling code in `src/init.js` and `public/reauth.html`. During the OIDC redirect flow, the `error` and `error_description` query parameters returned by the OIDC provider are written directly to the DOM via `innerHTML` without HTML escaping. An attacker who can craft a malicious redirect URL and convince a user to follow it can execute arbitrary JavaScript in the application's origin context. The vulnerability is most severe when the targeted user has an active STIG Manager session running in another browser tab — injected code executes in the same origin and can communicate with the SharedWorker managing the active access token, enabling authenticated API requests on behalf of the victim including reading and modifying collection data. The vulnerability is patched in version 1.6.8. There is no workaround short of upgrading. Deployments behind a web application firewall that filters reflected XSS payloads in query parameters may have partial mitigation, but this is not a substitute for patching.

    Action Type Old Value New Value
    Added Translation Title: stig-manager de NUWCDIVNPT, Description: STIG Manager es una API y un cliente web para gestionar evaluaciones de las Guías de Implementación Técnica de Seguridad (STIG) de Sistemas de Información. Las versiones 1.5.10 hasta 1.6.7 tienen una vulnerabilidad de cross-site scripting (XSS) reflejado en el código de manejo de errores de autenticación OIDC en ’src/init.js’ y ’public/reauth.html’. Durante el flujo de redirección OIDC, los parámetros de consulta ’error’ y ’error_description’ devueltos por el proveedor OIDC se escriben directamente en el DOM a través de ’innerHTML’ sin escape HTML. Un atacante que puede crear una URL de redirección maliciosa y convencer a un usuario para que la siga puede ejecutar JavaScript arbitrario en el contexto de origen de la aplicación. La vulnerabilidad es más grave cuando el usuario objetivo tiene una sesión activa de STIG Manager ejecutándose en otra pestaña del navegador - el código inyectado se ejecuta en el mismo origen y puede comunicarse con el SharedWorker que gestiona el token de acceso activo, lo que permite solicitudes de API autenticadas en nombre de la víctima, incluyendo la lectura y modificación de datos de la colección. La vulnerabilidad está parcheada en la versión 1.6.8. No hay solución alternativa aparte de actualizar. Las implementaciones detrás de un cortafuegos de aplicaciones web que filtra cargas útiles de XSS reflejado en los parámetros de consulta pueden tener una mitigación parcial, pero esto no sustituye el parcheo.
