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-2008-1983 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-2008-1983/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-1983/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-1983","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-1983/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-1983","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5q66-333v-xwqg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Advanced Electron Forum","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the beg parameter in the members action, potentially leading to session hijacking or malicious actions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"advanced_electron_forum","vendor":"anelectron"}],"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 Advanced Electron Forum (AEF) 1.0.6 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the beg parameter in a members action to index.php.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2008-04-21","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2008-04-21","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"31677","stars":null,"title":"Advanced Electron Forum 1.0.6 - 'beg' Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1983","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1984"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1982"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-04-27","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5090","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-11-14"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2545","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-07-20"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3700","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-09-23"},{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-13000","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-06-29"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2546","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-07-20"}],"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":"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":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the beg parameter in the members action, potentially leading to session hijacking or malicious actions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-1983/"}
