LOYTEC L-IP BACnet/IP Routers Cross-site Scripting (CVE-2026-12496)

high Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 505943

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

An unauthenticated remote attacker can inject and store malicious JavaScript in the OPC XML-DA server statistics page (/webui/statistics/opc_srv) of a LOYTEC L-IP BACnet/IP router by sending a crafted 'User-Agent' header in a POST request to the device's '/da' endpoint. The script executes in an administrator's browser when the statistics page is later viewed, enabling session hijacking, credential theft, or device reconfiguration.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
