AI-suggested
Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict script execution sources and reduce the impact of XSS attacks. Limit administrative access to trusted networks and use multi-factor authentication to reduce the risk of session compromise. Monitor web server logs and user activity for suspicious behavior related to the backup function. Educate administrators about phishing risks to prevent social engineering attempts that could trigger the vulnerability. Regularly check for updates from Microweber and apply security patches promptly once released. Consider deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with rules targeting XSS payloads on the vulnerable endpoint.
