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-2009-2631 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance. 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-2009-2631/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2631/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-2631","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2631/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-2631","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jvhh-4rp5-cfmm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"configuration_change","impacts":["data_read","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Clientless SSL VPN","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Clientless SSL VPNs violating same-origin policy allow attackers to execute XSS, steal cookies, and access internal resources via browser-based attacks.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"certcc","cpe":[{"product":"safenet_securewire_access_gateway","vendor":"aladdin"},{"product":"adaptive_security_appliance","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"e-class_ssl_vpn","vendor":"sonicwall"},{"product":"ssl_vpn","vendor":"sonicwall"},{"product":"stonegate","vendor":"stonesoft"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null},{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"Multiple clientless SSL VPN products that run in web browsers, including Stonesoft StoneGate; Cisco ASA; SonicWALL E-Class SSL VPN and SonicWALL SSL VPN; SafeNet SecureWire Access Gateway; Juniper Networks Secure Access; Nortel CallPilot; Citrix Access Gateway; and other products, when running in configurations that do not restrict access to the same domain as the VPN, retrieve the content of remote URLs from one domain and rewrite them so they originate from the VPN's domain, which violates the same origin policy and allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting attacks, read cookies that originated from other domains, access the Web VPN session to gain access to internal resources, perform key logging, and conduct other attacks.
