Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2008-6885 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2008-6885/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6885/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-6885","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6885/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-6885","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qhc4-w742-6vxx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"XOOPS CMS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script via private messages in XOOPS, requiring user interaction to execute.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"xoops","vendor":"xoops"}],"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 pmlite.php in XOOPS 2.3.1 and 2.3.2a allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a STYLE attribute in a URL BBcode tag in a private message.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6885","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6886"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6884"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-07-31","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-11174","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-07-12"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-36217","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-03"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in XOOPS before 2.4.0 Final have unknown impact and attack vectors.","id":"CVE-2009-3963","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-11-17"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5665","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-12-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3296","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-07-25"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0612","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-02-06"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5188","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-03"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-17","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script via private messages in XOOPS, requiring user interaction to execute.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6885/"}
