CVE-2023-48705: Cross-site Scripting potential in custom links, job buttons, and computed fields
(updated )
All users of Nautobot versions earlier than 1.6.6 or 2.0.5 are potentially affected.
Due to incorrect usage of Django’s mark_safe() API when rendering certain types of user-authored content, including:
- custom links
- job buttons
- computed fields
it is possible that users with permission to create or edit these types of content could craft a malicious payload (such as JavaScript code) that would be executed when rendering pages containing this content.
