🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

all

Implement server-side input validation to sanitize user inputs before processing.

Content Security Policy

all

Deploy Content Security Policy headers to restrict script execution sources.

Add 'Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; script-src 'self'' to web server headers

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement web application firewall with XSS protection rules
  • Disable affected endpoints or restrict access to trusted IP addresses only

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test vulnerable endpoints with safe XSS payloads like <script>alert('test')</script> and check if script executes.

Check Version:

Check DIAEnergie version in web interface or consult installation documentation.

Verify Fix Applied:

Retest with same XSS payloads after patching - scripts should be properly encoded and not execute.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual long parameter values in HTTP requests
  • Requests containing script tags or JavaScript code in URL parameters
  • Multiple failed XSS attempts from same source

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests with encoded script payloads in query strings
  • Unusual redirect patterns in web traffic

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND (url="*<script>*" OR url="*javascript:*" OR param="*alert(*")
