CVE-2025-9289 | Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) on Omada Controllers

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability was identified in a parameter in Omada Controllers due to improper input sanitization. Exploitation requires advanced conditions, such as network positioning or emulating a trusted entity, and user interaction by an authenticated administrator. If successful, an attacker could execute arbitrary JavaScript in the administrator’s browser, potentially exposing sensitive information and compromising confidentiality.

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:H)
Even with access, the exploit needs extra luck, timing, or a fussy environment to actually work.
Privileges required (PR:N)
No account or special rights needed—anonymous or random user is enough.
User interaction (UI:R)
A real person has to do something—click, install, enable—otherwise it doesn’t land.
Scope (S:C)
Breaking this can reach past the original component and bite other resources—bigger blast radius.
Confidentiality (C:L)
Some sensitive info could get out, but not a total data dump.
Integrity (I:L)
Attackers could change some data, but it’s limited—not everything goes.
Availability (A:N)
Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
