What is CVE-2018-18247?

Icinga Web 2 versions prior to 2.6.2 are susceptible to a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This issue arises from inadequate input validation of the 'icon' parameter in the '/icingaweb2/navigation/add' endpoint. Malicious actors can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of a victim's browser, potentially stealing sensitive information or performing actions on behalf of the user without their consent. It is crucial for users to upgrade to the latest version to mitigate this security risk.
