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-2005-2638 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-2005-2638/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-2638/index.md)","id":"CVE-2005-2638","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-2638/index.md","name":"CVE-2005-2638","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2h8w-6w44-87fv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PHP news script","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML via specific parameters in PHPFreeNews, potentially compromising user sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"phpfreenews","vendor":"phpfreenews"}],"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":[],"description":"Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in PHPFreeNews 1.40 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) NewsMode parameter to NewsCategoryForm.php, or the (2) Match or (3) NewsMode parameter to SearchResults.php.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":2,"first_seen":"2005-08-17","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2005-08-17","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"26160","stars":null,"title":"PHPFreeNews 1.40 - 'NewsCategoryForm.php?NewsMode' Cross-Site Scripting"},{"date":"2005-08-17","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"26161","stars":null,"title":"PHPFreeNews 1.40 - 'searchresults.php' Multiple Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2638","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2005"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2639"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2637"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2005-08-20","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2637","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-08-20"}],"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":"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":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML via specific parameters in PHPFreeNews, potentially compromising user sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-2638/"}
