Vulnerability Data
HAX CMS PHP allows users to manage their microsite universe with a PHP backend. Prior to version 11.0.0, in the HAX site editor, users can create a website block to load another site in an iframe. The application allows users…

to supply a target URL in the website block. When the HAX site is visited, the client's browser will query the supplied URL. An authenticated attacker can create a HAX site with a website block pointing at an attacker-controlled server running Responder or a similar tool. The attacker can then conduct a phishing attack by convincing another user to visit their malicious HAX site to harvest credentials. Version 11.0.0 contains a patch for the issue.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices directly require implementing frame-ancestors / X-Frame-Options controls that prevent this weakness.

Security testing can detect missing frame protections, but does not itself implement the control.
Web filtering can block or sandbox untrusted frames, but does not enforce application-level frame-busting or CSP.
Application security requirements can mandate frame-ancestors / X-Frame-Options, directly addressing UI redressing risks.
Secure architecture principles include isolation of UI layers and proper use of browser security controls.
Secure coding practices directly require implementation of frame-busting headers or CSP frame-ancestors directives.
