Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-02-20 01:34 – Updated: 2026-02-20 15:34

Title

LibreNMS has Stored XSS in Custom OID - unit parameter missing strip_tags()

Summary

LibreNMS is an auto-discovering PHP/MySQL/SNMP based network monitoring tool. Versions 24.10.0 through 26.1.1 are vulnerable to Stored XSS via the unit parameter in Custom OID. The Custom OID functionality lacks strip_tags() sanitization while other fields (name, oid, datatype) are sanitized. The unsanitized value is stored in the database and rendered without HTML escaping. This issue is fixed in version 26.2.0.

Severity

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-02-18 22:08 – Updated: 2026-02-20 16:48

Summary

LibreNMS has a Stored XSS in Custom OID - unit parameter missing strip_tags()

Details

Summary

The unit parameter in Custom OID functionality lacks strip_tags() sanitization while other fields (name, oid, datatype) are sanitized. The unsanitized value is stored in the database and rendered without HTML escaping, allowing Stored XSS.

Details

Vulnerable Input Processing (includes/html/forms/customoid.inc.php lines 18-21):

$name = strip_tags((string) $_POST['name']);       // line 18 - SANITIZED
$oid = strip_tags((string) $_POST['oid']);         // line 19 - SANITIZED
$datatype = strip_tags((string) $_POST['datatype']);  // line 20 - SANITIZED
$unit = $_POST['unit'];                            // line 21 - NOT SANITIZED!

Vulnerable Output (graphs/customoid.inc.php lines 13-20):

$customoid_unit = $customoid['customoid_unit'];  // Retrieved from DB
$customoid_current = \LibreNMS\Util\Number::formatSi(...) . $customoid_unit;
echo "...$customoid_current...";  // ECHOED WITHOUT ESCAPING!

Expected Output

  oid (strip_tags):      1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.10.1.3.1
  datatype (strip_tags): GAUGE
  unit (NO strip_tags):  <script>alert("XSS")</script>

*** VULNERABILITY: 'unit' parameter has NO strip_tags()! ***

Impact

Attack Vector: User with device edit permissions sets malicious Unit value
Exploitation: XSS payload stored in database, executes for all users viewing device graphs
Consequences:
Session hijacking via cookie theft
Admin account takeover
Malicious actions on behalf of victims
Persistent attack affecting all users
Affected Users: All LibreNMS installations with Custom OID feature

Severity

5.4 (Medium)
