Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, 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-2008-3773 exists.\n\nAffected product: Vbulletin Vbulletin. 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-2008-3773/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3773/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-3773","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3773/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-3773","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5gxm-78q7-pwr8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"vBulletin forum","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can inject scripts via private message subjects in vBulletin when specific notifications are enabled, risking session hijacking.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"vbulletin","vendor":"vbulletin"}],"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 vBulletin 3.7.2 PL1 and 3.6.10 PL3, when \"Show New Private Message Notification Pop-Up\" is enabled, allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a private message subject (aka newpm[title]).","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2008-08-20","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2008-08-20","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"32285","stars":null,"title":"vBulletin 3.6.10/3.7.2 - '$newpm[title]' Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3773","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vbulletin:vbulletin","products":["vbulletin:vbulletin"],"type":"xss","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3774"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3772"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-08-22","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"vBulletin PHP Module Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-17496","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-08-12"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"vBulletin PHP Module Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2019-16759","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2019-09-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"vBulletin 5.0.0 through 5.7.5 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.3 allows unauthenticated users to invoke protected API controllers' methods when running","id":"CVE-2025-48827","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-25135","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-7373","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-12720","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-17132","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-04"}],"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":"Authenticated users can inject scripts via private message subjects in vBulletin when specific notifications are enabled, risking session hijacking.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3773/"}
