Description


A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability was found in services_acb.php, a page
in the pfSense software WebGUI, on version 2.4.4-p2 and earlier.

The page did not encode the download parameter in its output, and a reflected
XSS was possible.

Due to the lack of proper encoding on the affected parameters susceptible to
XSS, arbitrary JavaScript could be executed in the user's browser. The user's
session cookie or other information from the session may be compromised.
