Threat metrics

Exploit Maturity: POC

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable system is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed below, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed “remotely exploitable” and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: The attacker must take no measurable action to exploit the vulnerability. The attack requires no target-specific circumvention to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable system.
Attack Requirements: None: The successful attack does not depend on the deployment and execution conditions of the vulnerable system. The attacker can expect to be able to reach the vulnerability and execute the exploit under all or most instances of the vulnerability.
Privileges Required: High: The attacker requires privileges that provide significant (e.g., administrative) control over the vulnerable system allowing full access to the vulnerable system’s settings and files.
User Interaction: Passive: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires limited interaction by the targeted user with the vulnerable system and the attacker’s payload. These interactions would be considered involuntary and do not require that the user actively subvert protections built into the vulnerable system.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Subsequent System or all confidentiality impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Subsequent System or all integrity impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Subsequent System or all availability impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Exploit Maturity: POC: Based on threat intelligence sources each of the following must apply: · Proof-of-concept is publicly available · No knowledge of reported attempts to exploit this vulnerability · No knowledge of publicly available solutions used to simplify attempts to exploit the vulnerability

Exploitation evidence

CVE published 22 Feb 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponized: evidence found.

Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation

No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), CVSS vector, the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 29 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2026-2897, organizations should first verify if they are running affected versions of funadmin (7.1.0-rc1 to 7.1.0-rc4) and plan to upgrade to a patched or newer stable release once available. In the absence of an official patch, implement strict input validation and output encoding on the 'Value' parameter within the backend interface to prevent script injection. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious payloads targeting the vulnerable parameter. Restrict access to the backend interface by IP whitelisting or VPN-only access to reduce exposure. Educate users and administrators about the risks of clicking untrusted links and encourage the use of security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP) to limit script execution. Regularly monitor logs for unusual activity indicative of exploitation attempts. Finally, maintain an incident response plan to quickly address any compromise resulting from this vulnerability.

Description

A security vulnerability has been detected in funadmin up to 7.1.0-rc4. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file app/backend/view/index/index.html of the component Backend Interface. The manipulation of the argument Value leads to cross site scripting. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

Impact

The exploitation of this XSS vulnerability can have several impacts on organizations using affected versions of funadmin. Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts in the context of authenticated users, potentially leading to session hijacking, credential theft, or unauthorized actions within the administrative backend. This can compromise the integrity and confidentiality of the affected systems and data. While the vulnerability does not directly impact system availability, successful exploitation can facilitate further attacks such as privilege escalation or malware deployment. Organizations relying on funadmin for backend management may face data breaches, loss of control over administrative functions, and reputational damage. The lack of vendor response and patches increases the risk exposure, especially in environments where user interaction with the backend interface is common. The medium severity rating suggests a moderate risk, but the ease of remote exploitation without authentication elevates the threat level for exposed systems.
