Title
OpenNMS reflected cross-site scripting in the web UI via request parameters
Summary
A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability exists in the web user interface of multiple versions of OpenNMS Meridian and Horizon. Several web UI pages copy request parameter values into the HTML response without correct contextual output encoding. A remote attacker can craft a link that runs arbitrary JavaScript in the OpenNMS origin when an authenticated user opens it. The script runs in the victim's browser with the victim's session, so the attacker can read page data and send same-origin requests as the victim. The fix encodes the affected request values. On pages that use AngularJS, the fix also stops client-side template evaluation of the reflected values. The solution is to upgrade to Meridian 2024.3.15, 2025.0.12, 2026.0.2 and Horizon 36.0.6 or newer. Meridian and Horizon installation instructions state that they are intended for installation within an organization's private networks and should not be directly accessible from the Internet.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
