and HTML code into various fields within PRTG's Network Monitor web management interface. When this data is
viewed within the web console the code will execute within the context of the authenticated user. This will
allow a malicious actor to conduct attacks which can be used to modify the system configuration, compromise data,
take control of the product or launch attacks against the authenticated user's host system.
The persistent XSS vulnerability is delivered via the network SNMP discovery process of a device. If the network
device that is discovered contains JavaScript or HTML code specified as the following SNMP OID objects, then
the code will be rendered within the context of the authenticated user who views the 'System Information' web
page of the discovered device.");
