Description:
A vulnerability was reported in Fortinet FortiGate/FortiOS. A remote user can conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
The DHCP monitor web user interface does not properly filter HTML code from user-supplied input before displaying the input. A remote user (DHCP client) can supply a specially crafted hostname via that, when viewed via the DHCP monitor web user interface, can cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the target user's browser. The code will originate from the Fortinet FortiGate/FortiOS interface and will run in the security context of that site. As a result, the code will be able to access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take actions on the site acting as the target user.
