Security readout for executives and security teams
This is a stored cross-site scripting issue in OpenPLC ScadaBR. An authenticated user can save malicious content in system settings that later runs in another user’s browser. Because CISA lists CVE-2021-26829 in KEV, treat affected deployments as a real-world exploitation concern, especially in OT environments. Exposure is likely limited to organizations running the named ScadaBR versions and exposing the web interface to users or networks where an attacker can authenticate. The source bundle provides no CPEs and no complete affected-product inventory, so asset validation is required. Prioritize this above a typical medium CVSS issue because it is KEV-listed and tied to OT/ICS reporting. The business risk is unauthorized script execution in operator browsers, which can support credential theft or misleading interface behavior. Mitigation focus: Inventory ScadaBR deployments and confirm operating system and version.; Restrict ScadaBR web access to trusted administrative networks.; Review vendor or project guidance for fixed versions or supported upgrade paths..
