CVE-2026-47687 FOGProject CVE debrief
The FOG Project is vulnerable to a high-severity issue, CVE-2026-47687, which allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript in an administrator's browser. This issue arises from the `selectForm()` helper in `fogpage.class.php` rendering `<option>` labels using raw, unescaped user input. An attacker who knows any registered host's MAC address can POST a malicious `sysproduct` value to `/service/inventory.php`, which is stored in the database. When an administrator opens Reports > Inventory, the payload breaks out of the `<option>` element and executes arbitrary JavaScript in the admin's browser. This vulnerability affects FOG Project versions prior to 1.5.10.1832 and 1.6.0-beta.2313.

Who should care
Administrators and users of the FOG Project, particularly those using versions prior to 1.5.10.1832 and 1.6.0-beta.2313, should be aware of this vulnerability and take necessary actions to mitigate it. This includes updating to the latest version and restricting access to the `/service/inventory.php` endpoint.
Technical summary
The `selectForm()` helper in `fogpage.class.php` renders `<option>` labels using raw, unescaped user input. An unauthenticated attacker who knows any registered host's MAC address can POST a malicious `sysproduct` value to `/service/inventory.php`, which is stored in the database. When an administrator opens Reports > Inventory, the payload breaks out of the `<option>` element and executes arbitrary JavaScript in the admin's browser. This vulnerability affects FOG Project versions prior to 1.5.10.1832 and 1.6.0-beta.2313.
Defensive priority
High priority should be given to updating to versions 1.5.10.1832 or 1.6.0-beta.2313, or later, to prevent exploitation of this vulnerability.
Recommended defensive actions
- Update to version 1.5.10.1832 or 1.6.0-beta.2313, or later
- Restrict access to the `/service/inventory.php` endpoint
- Monitor for suspicious activity in the Reports > Inventory section
- Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
- Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
- Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
- Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
