Subject: [PATCH 2/2] firewall.cgi: Fixes XSS potential
Date: Thu, 2 Oct 2025 13:10:15 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251002111015.13264-2-adolf.belka@ipfire.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251002111015.13264-1-adolf.belka@ipfire.org>
- Related to CVE-2025-50975
- Fixes PROT
- ruleremark was already escaped when firewall.cgi was initially merged back in Core
Update 77.
- SRC_PORT, TGT_PORT, dnaport, src_addr & tgt_addr are already validated in the code as
ports or port ranges.
- std_net_tgt is a string defined in the code and not a variable
- The variable key ignores any input that is not a digit and subsequently uses the next
free rulenumber digit
