CVE-2026-41723 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in VMware Cloud Foundation Operations, also affecting related deployments that embed the same management component, including VMware Aria Operations-based environments. The flaw is caused by insufficient sanitization or neutralization of user-supplied content in the view creation workflow. An authenticated user with low privileges but permission to create views can store attacker-controlled script content that is later rendered by the application. When a higher-privileged user, such as an administrator, opens the malicious view or associated dashboard element, the injected script executes in that user’s browser session within the application context. This creates a practical session-riding and privilege-escalation path through the management interface and can be used to trigger administrative actions in VMware Cloud Foundation Operations.
