CVE-2022-29931 is a reflected Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability found in the administration interface of Raytion Custom Security Manager (Raytion CSM) version 7.2.0. Reflected XSS occurs when malicious input sent to a web application is immediately reflected back in the response without proper sanitization or encoding, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of the victim's browser. This vulnerability affects the administration interface, which is typically accessible only to authorized users managing the security system. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 6.1, indicating a medium severity level. The vector string (CVSS:3.1/AC:L/AV:N/A:N/C:L/I:L/PR:N/S:C/UI:R) reveals that the attack requires low attack complexity, can be executed remotely over the network without authentication, affects confidentiality and integrity to a low degree, and requires user interaction (the victim must click a crafted link or visit a malicious page). The scope is changed (S:C), meaning the vulnerability affects components beyond the initially vulnerable component, potentially impacting the security manager's environment. No known exploits are reported in the wild, and no patches or vendor information are provided in the data. The lack of vendor or product details limits the ability to fully assess the environment, but the vulnerability is clearly tied to Raytion CSM 7.2.0's administration interface.

For European organizations using Raytion Custom Security Manager 7.2.0, this vulnerability poses a risk primarily to the confidentiality and integrity of administrative sessions. An attacker could craft a malicious URL or link that, when clicked by an administrator, executes arbitrary JavaScript in their browser. This could lead to session hijacking, theft of administrative credentials, or unauthorized actions performed with the administrator's privileges. Given that the administration interface is a critical control point for security management, exploitation could undermine the overall security posture of the affected organization. The reflected XSS does not directly impact availability but could facilitate further attacks or unauthorized access. European organizations with sensitive or regulated data, such as those in finance, healthcare, or critical infrastructure, could face compliance and reputational risks if administrative accounts are compromised. The requirement for user interaction reduces the likelihood of automated exploitation but does not eliminate risk, especially if phishing or social engineering tactics are employed.

Organizations should immediately verify if they are running Raytion Custom Security Manager version 7.2.0 and restrict access to the administration interface to trusted networks and users only. Implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block reflected XSS attack patterns targeting the administration interface. Educate administrators about the risks of clicking untrusted links and encourage the use of multi-factor authentication (MFA) to reduce the impact of credential theft. If vendor patches or updates become available, prioritize their deployment. In the absence of patches, consider deploying content security policy (CSP) headers to restrict the execution of unauthorized scripts in the browser. Regularly audit and monitor administrative access logs for suspicious activity. Additionally, isolate the administration interface from general user networks and enforce strict input validation and output encoding on all user-supplied data within the interface if customization is possible.
