Compensating controls
- Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
- Restrict the affected network interface to trusted sources where business-safe.
- Monitor vendor guidance and exploitation sources for a material change.
Verification
- Confirm that the asset runs Unknown EcoStruxure Building Operation WebReports V1.9 - V3.1 and falls inside the recorded affected range.
- Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
- Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
- Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.

- Schneider Electric WebReports V1.9 - V3.1
- Summary
- CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation (Cross-site Scripting Stored) vulnerability exists that could cause an authenticated remote user being able to inject arbitrary web script or HTML due to incorrect sanitization of user-supplied data and achieve a Cross-Site Scripting stored attack against other WebReport users.
- Remediation
- Version 3.2 of EBO is not impacted by any of the vulnerabilities. It is highly recommended to upgrade to this version. For assistance in upgrading, contact Schneider Electric’s Customer Care Center or your Schneider Electric representative. For versions prior to 3.2, fixes are now available in the form of a hotfix patch for the following versions and products. Step 1: Locate the version you need to patch on the Exchange Community by accessing community.exchange.se.com https://community.exchange.se.com/and searching for ‘EBO Hotfix List’ or alternatively, browse to the following URL: https://community.exchange.se.com/t5/EBO-Hotfix-List/bgp/sbo-hotfix-list Step 2: Follow the instructions in the readme file

What, why and how
A CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation (Cross-site Scripting Stored) vulnerability exists in EcoStruxure Building Operation WebReports V1.9 - V3.1 that could cause an authenticated remote user being able to inject arbitrary web script or HTML due to incorrect sanitization of user-supplied data and achieve a Cross-Site Scripting stored attack against other WebReport users.
What
A CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation (Cross-site Scripting Stored) vulnerability exists in EcoStruxure Building Operation WebReports V1.9 - V3.1 that could cause an authenticated remote user being able to inject arbitrary web script or HTML due to incorrect sanitization of user-supplied data and achieve a Cross-Site Scripting stored attack against other WebReport users.
Why
Attacker-controlled content can reach a browser as executable script without sufficient output encoding or sanitisation.
How
An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path
CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.
Observed exploitation No confirmed evidence
?
Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.
Public PoC / exploit material None recorded
?
Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.
- Likely attack path
- a network path → Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor
- Attack surface
- Network
- Privileges required
- Low: a basic authenticated account is required
- User interaction
- Required interaction required
- Attack complexity
- Low: no specialised conditions are recorded
- Security boundary
- Changed: exploitation can affect a different security authority
- Weakness
?
CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness. - CWE-79 ↗
CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'). The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
- CVSS vector
?
CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity. CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:NCommon Vulnerability Scoring System 3.1: the compact vector below is decoded into plain language.
AVNetworkAttack vector: The vulnerable component can be reached over a network.ACLowAttack complexity: No specialised conditions are required beyond attacker-controlled input.PRLowPrivileges required: The attacker needs basic user-level privileges.UIRequiredUser interaction: Another user must perform an action for exploitation to succeed.SChangedScope: The attack can affect a component governed by a different security authority.CLowConfidentiality impact: A successful attack can cause a limited loss.ILowIntegrity impact: A successful attack can cause a limited loss.ANoneAvailability impact: No direct loss is represented by this metric.- Post-exploitation / living off the land
- No specific living-off-the-land technique is confirmed in the structured sources. Monitor normal administration tools for activity inconsistent with the affected service's baseline.
