CVE-2018-15707

29
FAUCET Score

CVE-2018-15707 describes a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Advantech WebAccess versions 8.3.1 and 8.3.2, specifically within the Bwmainleft.asp page. This medium-severity vulnerability (CVSS 5.4) allows an authenticated attacker to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to credential disclosure. While not listed on the KEV catalog or Hot List, an ExploitDB entry (EDB-45774) indicates a remote code execution exploit exists for Advantech WebAccess SCADA 8.3.2, though it's unclear if this directly leverages the XSS. There is no evidence of active exploitation, Metasploit or Nuclei modules, or significant community discussion or media coverage.
