CVE-2025-40895
Received Received - Intake
Stored HTML Injection in CMC Sensor Map Enables Phishing

Publication date: 2026-03-04

Last updated on: 2026-03-05

Assigner: Nozomi Networks Inc.

Description
A Stored HTML Injection vulnerability was discovered in the CMC's Sensor Map functionality due to improper validation on connected Guardians' properties. A malicious authenticated user with administrator privileges on a Guardian connected to a CMC can edit the Guardian's properties to inject HTML tags. If the Sensor Map functionality is enabled in the CMC, when a victim CMC user interacts with it, then the injected HTML may render in their browser, enabling phishing and possibly open redirect attacks. Full XSS exploitation and direct information disclosure are prevented by the existing input validation and Content Security Policy configuration.

Executive Summary

[{'type': 'paragraph', 'content': "CVE-2025-40895 is a Stored HTML Injection vulnerability in the Sensor Map feature of Nozomi Networks' CMC versions prior to 25.6.0. It occurs because of improper validation of properties on connected Guardians. A malicious authenticated user with administrator privileges on a Guardian can inject arbitrary HTML tags by editing the Guardian's properties. When the Sensor Map functionality is enabled, these injected HTML elements may be rendered in the browsers of other CMC users interacting with the map."}, {'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'Although this can enable phishing and open redirect attacks, full cross-site scripting (XSS) exploitation and direct information disclosure are prevented by existing input validation and Content Security Policy configurations.'}] [1]

Impact Analysis

[{'type': 'paragraph', 'content': "This vulnerability can impact you by allowing a malicious administrator on a connected Guardian to inject HTML that may be rendered in other users' browsers when they interact with the Sensor Map. This can lead to phishing attacks or open redirect attacks targeting those users."}, {'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'However, the risk is somewhat limited because full cross-site scripting exploitation and direct information disclosure are mitigated by existing input validation and Content Security Policy settings.'}] [1]
