CVE-2015-6005 describes multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in IPSwitch WhatsUp Gold before version 16.4. These flaws allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML through various input fields, such as SNMP objects, trap messages, and numerous library description fields. With a CVSS score of 6.9 (Medium), successful exploitation requires high privileges and user interaction, potentially leading to high confidentiality impact and low integrity impact. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or inclusion in CISA's KEV catalog, though it has garnered some community discussion and media coverage.
