- Issue
- Versions of @novnc/novnc prior to 0.6.2 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). The package fails to validate input from the remote VNC server such as the VNC server name. This allows an attacker in control of the remote server to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the noVNC web page. It affects any users of include/ui.js and users of vncauto.html and vnc.html. Recommendation Upgrade to version 0.6.2 or later.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 0.6.2 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
