aitangbao springboot-manager dept cross site scripting

An attacker can exploit CVE-2025-2207 by manipulating the 'name' argument within the /sys/dept endpoint of the springboot-manager application. Successful exploitation allows the injection of arbitrary JavaScript code, which will be executed in the context of the user's browser. This can lead to the theft of session cookies, redirection to malicious websites, or modification of the application's content. The impact is amplified if the application handles sensitive user data or performs critical operations, as an attacker could leverage the injected script to compromise user accounts or disrupt service.

Organizations utilizing aitangbao springboot-manager version 3.0, particularly those with publicly accessible instances of the /sys/dept endpoint, are at risk. Shared hosting environments where multiple users share the same application instance are especially vulnerable.

• java / server:

• generic web:

The primary mitigation for CVE-2025-2207 is to immediately upgrade springboot-manager to version 3.0.1 or later. If upgrading is not immediately feasible, consider implementing input validation and output encoding on the /sys/dept endpoint to sanitize user-supplied data. Web application firewalls (WAFs) can also be configured to detect and block XSS attempts targeting this endpoint. Verify the upgrade by attempting to access the /sys/dept endpoint with a known malicious payload after the upgrade; it should be properly sanitized.
