VAR-201404-0424

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-13 23:39

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Dell SonicWALL Email Security 7.4.5 and earlier allow remote authenticated administrators to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) the uploadPatch parameter to the System/Advanced page (settings_advanced.html) or (2) the uploadLicenses parameter in the License management (settings_upload_dlicense.html) page. The Dell SonicWall EMail Security Appliance is prone to multiple HTML-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. Successful exploits will allow attacker-supplied HTML and script code to run in the context of the affected browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user. Other attacks are also possible. Dell SonicWall EMail Security Appliance 7.4.5 and prior versions are vulnerable. This scheme can effectively prevent various types of email attacks and supports encryption of data and information in emails. Filter the 'uploadLicenses' parameter

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.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.

Vulnerabilities whose description is nearest to this one in the vector space of the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-biencoder model. This is a similarity search over the bi-encoder space (plain cosine), not a classification, and it has no measured accuracy.
