An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2005-4501 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Mediawiki Mediawiki. 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-2005-4501/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-4501/index.md)","id":"CVE-2005-4501","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-4501/index.md","name":"CVE-2005-4501","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2005-4501","GHSA-38h6-xf6r-fw6f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MediaWiki","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass XSS protections and execute JavaScript via inline styles in Internet Explorer, affecting MediaWiki users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mediawiki","vendor":"mediawiki"}],"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":"MediaWiki before 1.5.4 uses a hard-coded \"internal placeholder string\", which allows remote attackers to bypass protection against cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and execute Javascript using inline style attributes, which are processed by Internet Explorer.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-4501","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"mediawiki:mediawiki","products":["mediawiki:mediawiki"],"type":"xss","year":"2005"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-4502"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-4500"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2005-12-22","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-37303","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-29904","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-04-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-29906","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-04-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Business logic in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-28205","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-28206","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-28209","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Business logic in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-36126","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-02"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can bypass XSS protections and execute JavaScript via inline styles in Internet Explorer, affecting MediaWiki users.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-4501/"}
