Published: 06/30/2026 (06/30/2026, 22:27:37 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: StoneFly
Product: Storage Concentrator

Description

Storage Concentrator (SC & SCVM) is vulnerable to reflected cross-site scripting due to unsanitized content being echoed back in 404 error pages. An attacker can craft a malicious URL that, when visited by an authenticated user, causes arbitrary script content to execute within the victim's browser session in the context of the application. This could be leveraged to steal session cookies, redirect users, or perform unauthorized actions on behalf of the victim.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-50040 describes a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) in StoneFly Storage Concentrator (SC & SCVM). The issue arises because unsanitized user input is reflected in 404 error pages, enabling attackers to inject and execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser when they visit a crafted URL. This can lead to session hijacking, user redirection, or unauthorized actions within the application context. The vulnerability requires user interaction (UI:A) and has a medium impact on confidentiality and integrity (VC:L, VI:L). No vendor advisory or patch information is currently available.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation allows arbitrary script execution in the context of an authenticated user's session, potentially leading to theft of session cookies, user redirection, and unauthorized actions performed on behalf of the victim. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality and integrity at a low level. There is no indication of privilege escalation or availability impact.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, users should exercise caution when clicking on untrusted links that may trigger 404 error pages in the affected product. No official mitigation or workaround has been provided by the vendor at this time.
