Title
[KIS-2026-01] Blesta <= 5.13.1 (confirm_url) Reflected Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
Summary
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Blesta <= 5.13.1 (confirm_url) Reflected Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[-] Software Link:
https://www.blesta.com
[-] Affected Versions:
All versions from 3.2.0 to 5.13.1.
[-] Vulnerability Description:
User input passed through the "confirm_url" GET parameter to the
/dialog/confirm and /client_dialog/confirm/ endpoints is not properly
sanitized before being used to generate HTML output; specifically,
before being used as action attribute of an HTML form. This can be
exploited by attackers to perform 2-clicks Reflected Cross-Site
Scripting (XSS) attacks.
[-] Proof of Concept:
An attacker may trick a victim Blesta user into clicking on links like these:
http://[blesta]/dialog/confirm/?confirm_url=javascript:alert('XSS')
http://[blesta]/client_dialog/confirm/?confirm_url=javascript:eval(atob('YWxlcnQoJ1hTUyBvbiAnK2RvY3VtZW50LmRvbWFpbik='))
When the victim user clicks on the malicious link and then they also
click on the "Yes" button, the form will be submitted, and the
attacker-controlled JavaScript code will be executed on the victim
user's browser.
[-] Solution:
Apply the vendor patch or upgrade to version 5.13.2 or later.
