Red Hat Stackrox Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

Vulnerability

A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been identified in Red Hat Stackrox. This issue arises when script code is inserted into a limited number of table cells. The vulnerability can be exploited if the script is embedded in the name of a Kubernetes 'Role' object applied to a secured cluster. This object may be used by a user with cluster access or through a compromised third-party product.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for cross-site scripting, where an attacker can inject malicious scripts that are executed in the context of the user's browser.

Reproduction

To reproduce this vulnerability, create a Kubernetes 'Role' object and include script code in the role name. Apply this role to a secured cluster. The injected script will be executed, demonstrating the cross-site scripting vulnerability.
