An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2002-2255 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-2255/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-2255/index.md)","id":"CVE-2002-2255","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-2255/index.md","name":"CVE-2002-2255","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cp55-952w-w99v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"phpBB forum software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the search_username parameter in phpBB's search.php, potentially compromising user sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"phpbb","vendor":"phpbb"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in search.php in phpBB 2.0.3 and possibly earlier versions allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the search_username parameter in searchuser mode.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2002-12-03","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2002-12-03","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"22065","stars":null,"title":"phpBB 2.0.3 - 'search.php' Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-2255","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2002"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-2256"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-2254"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-10-14","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3224","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-07-18"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in phpBB before 3.0.1 have unknown impact and attack vectors, related to \"two minor security-related bu","id":"CVE-2008-1766","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-04-12"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-70810","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1471","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-04-21"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"phpBB has Password Reset Link Poisoning via Host Header injection","id":"CVE-2026-29199","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-04"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"phpBB arbitrary CSS injection","id":"CVE-2019-16108","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-19"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"phpBB Denial of Service","id":"CVE-2019-9826","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-05-02"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-08","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the search_username parameter in phpBB's search.php, potentially compromising user sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-2255/"}
