pfSense CE Stored XSS in suricata_app_parsers.php via policy_name
CVE-2025-34178 - September 09, 2025

In pfSense CE /suricata/suricata_app_parsers.php, the value of the policy_name parameter is not sanitized of HTML-related strings/characters before being directly displayed. This can result in stored cross-site scripting. The attacker must be authenticated with at least "WebCfg - Services: suricata package" permissions.

XSS

Stored XSS in pfSense CE Suricata suricata_flow_stream.php
CVE-2025-34177 - September 09, 2025

In pfSense CE /suricata/suricata_flow_stream.php, the value of the policy_name parameter is not sanitized of HTML-related strings/characters before being directly displayed. This can result in stored cross-site scripting. The attacker must be authenticated with at least "WebCfg - Services: suricata package" permissions.

XSS

CVE-2025-34176: Authenticated Directory Traversal in pfSense Suricata IP Rep
CVE-2025-34176 - September 09, 2025

In pfSense CE /suricata/suricata_ip_reputation.php, the value of the iplist parameter is not sanitized of directory traversal-related strings/characters. This value is directly used in a file existence check operation. While the contents of the file cannot be read, the server reveals whether the file exists, which enables an attacker to enumerate files on the target. The attacker must be authenticated with at least "WebCfg - Services: suricata package" permissions.

Directory traversal

XSS via unsanitized filehash on pfSense CE suricata_filecheck.php
CVE-2025-34175 - September 09, 2025

In pfSense CE /usr/local/www/suricata/suricata_filecheck.php, the value of the filehash parameter is directly displayed without sanitizing for HTML-related characters/strings. This can result in reflected cross-site scripting if the victim is authenticated.

XSS

Stored-XSS in pfSense CE Status Traffic Totals Page via unsanitized start-day
CVE-2025-34174 - September 09, 2025

In pfSense CE /usr/local/www/status_traffic_totals.php, the value of the start-day parameter is not ensured to be a numeric value or sanitized of HTML-related characters/strings before being directly displayed in the input box. This value can be saved as the default value to be displayed to all users when visiting the Status Traffic Totals page, resulting in stored cross-site scripting. The attacker must be authenticated with at least "WebCfg - Status: Traffic Totals" permissions.

XSS

Directory Traversal in pfSense CE Snort Module Reveals File Existence
CVE-2025-34173 - September 09, 2025

In pfSense CE /usr/local/www/snort/snort_ip_reputation.php, the value of the iplist parameter is not sanitized of directory traversal-related characters/strings before being used to check if a file exists. While the contents of the file cannot be read, the server reveals whether a file exists, which allows an attacker to enumerate files on the target. The attacker must be authenticated with at least "WebCfg - Services: Snort package" permissions.

Directory traversal

XSS in pfSense CE via showsticktablecontent GET param
CVE-2025-34172 - September 09, 2025

In pfSense CE /usr/local/www/haproxy/haproxy_stats.php, the value of the showsticktablecontent parameter is displayed after being read from HTTP GET requests. This can enable reflected cross-site scripting when the victim is authenticated.

XSS

CVE-2024-57273: pfSense CE <2.8.0 beta XSS in ACB 'reason' field
CVE-2024-57273 - May 14, 2025

Netgate pfSense CE (prior to 2.8.0 beta release) and corresponding Plus builds is vulnerable to Cross-site scripting (XSS) in the Automatic Configuration Backup (ACB) service, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript, delete backups, or leak sensitive information via an unsanitized "reason" field and a derivable device key generated from the public SSH key.

XSS in pfSense CE Log Widget <2.8.0 beta – Netgate
CVE-2024-54779 - May 14, 2025

Netgate pfSense CE <2.8.0 Beta: OpenVPN Widget CMD Injection via remipp
CVE-2024-54780 - May 14, 2025

Netgate pfSense CE (prior to 2.8.0 beta release) and corresponding Plus builds are vulnerable to command injection in the OpenVPN widget due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input to the OpenVPN management interface. An authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by injecting arbitrary OpenVPN management commands via the remipp parameter.

OpenSSH <9.6 BPP handshake flaw allows integrity bypass (Terrapin attack)
CVE-2023-48795 5.9 - Medium - December 18, 2023

The SSH transport protocol with certain OpenSSH extensions, found in OpenSSH before 9.6 and other products, allows remote attackers to bypass integrity checks such that some packets are omitted (from the extension negotiation message), and a client and server may consequently end up with a connection for which some security features have been downgraded or disabled, aka a Terrapin attack. This occurs because the SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP), implemented by these extensions, mishandles the handshake phase and mishandles use of sequence numbers. For example, there is an effective attack against SSH's use of ChaCha20-Poly1305 (and CBC with Encrypt-then-MAC). The bypass occurs in chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com and (if CBC is used) the -etm@openssh.com MAC algorithms.
