What is CVE-2018-1000670?

The KOHA Library System, specifically versions 16.11.x up to 16.11.13 and 17.05.x up to 17.05.05, is affected by a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability that exists in multiple fields across various pages. Notably, it can be exploited through URLs like /cgi-bin/koha/acqui/supplier.pl?op=enter and /cgi-bin/koha/circ/circulation.pl?borrowernumber=[number]. An attacker could potentially take control of a higher-privileged user's browser session through social engineering tactics, tricking victims into visiting a compromised page that contains malicious payloads. This security issue has been addressed in version 17.11.
