CVE-2025-47773
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedCombodo iTop is a web based IT service management tool. Versions prior to 2.7.13 and 3.2.2 are vulnerable to cross-site scripting when a dashboard is edited via an AJAX call. Versions 2.7.13 and 3.2.2 protect rendered HTML content.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceCombodo iTop versions prior to 2.7.13 and 3.2.2 contain a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the dashboard editing functionality when processed via an AJAX call. The vulnerability allows injection of malicious scripts into rendered HTML content. The patched versions protect rendered HTML content to prevent XSS exploitation.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Determine installed iTop versionLocate the version file or check the application header/footer for the version number. Common locations include a version.php file in the main directory or the application login page footer.Affected if The version is below 2.7.13, or is 3.0.0 through 3.1.x, or is 3.2.0 or 3.2.1 (any version in the range < 2.7.13 or >= 3.0.0 and < 3.2.2).
-
Verify dashboard module is enabledLog into iTop as an administrator and navigate to the Dashboard module. Check if the dashboard editing functionality is accessible via the user interface.Affected if The dashboard module is present and the AJAX-based dashboard editor is accessible to users.
-
Identify AJAX endpoint for dashboard editingInspect network traffic when accessing the dashboard editor. Look for AJAX requests to endpoints related to dashboard rendering or editing (typically in the pages/ajax or similar directory).Affected if AJAX endpoints handling dashboard content are reachable without additional authentication beyond standard iTop login.
-
Check for absence of HTML encoding in dashboard responsesUse browser developer tools or a proxy to capture AJAX responses from the dashboard editor. Examine the response content to see if HTML characters are being rendered without proper encoding.Affected if Raw HTML or unescaped script tags appear in the AJAX response content when dashboard widgets are rendered.
You are affected if your iTop version falls within the vulnerable ranges (< 2.7.13 or >= 3.0.0 and < 3.2.2) AND the dashboard editing feature is accessible to users who can trigger the AJAX-based dashboard rendering.
