Technical details

The vulnerability is a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue that exists in the ReportName field of the application.

Mitigation and workarounds

The vulnerability has been fixed in Stimulsoft Dashboard.JS version 2024.1.3, released on January 19, 2024. Users are advised to upgrade to this version or later to mitigate the security risk (CVE Writeup).
