AI-suggested

  1. Immediately update Kaspersky Endpoint Security products to versions with antivirus databases dated 18.11.2025 or later to apply the official fix.
  2. If immediate patching is not possible, implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block reflected XSS attack patterns targeting the security product's web interface.
  3. Conduct targeted phishing awareness training for employees, emphasizing the risks of clicking unknown or suspicious links, especially those purporting to relate to security software.
  4. Restrict access to the Kaspersky web interface to trusted networks or via VPN to reduce exposure to external phishing attempts.
  5. Monitor logs for unusual web interface access patterns or suspicious URL parameters indicative of attempted XSS exploitation.
  6. Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers if configurable on the affected web interfaces to limit script execution sources.
  7. Coordinate with Kaspersky support for any additional hardening guidance or interim mitigations.
  8. Review and tighten endpoint security policies to detect anomalous behavior that could result from exploitation. These steps go beyond generic advice by focusing on network-level controls, user training, and monitoring specific to the affected product's web interface.

Description

Kaspersky has fixed a security issue in Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux (any version with anti-virus databases prior to 18.11.2025), Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes (any version with anti-virus databases prior to 18.11.2025), and Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Mac (12.0.0.325, 12.1.0.553, and 12.2.0.694 with anti-virus databases prior to 18.11.2025) that could have allowed a reflected XSS attack to be carried out by an attacker using phishing techniques.
