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-2009-4459 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Redmine Redmine. 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-2009-4459/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-4459/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-4459","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-4459/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-4459","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2009-4459","GHSA-vpxw-mhc6-mv6v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Redmine issue tracker","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary scripts via UTF-7 encoded titles in Redmine, potentially leading to code execution or account takeover.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"redmine","vendor":"redmine"}],"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":"Redmine 0.8.7 and earlier uses the title tag before defining the character encoding in a meta tag, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and inject arbitrary script via UTF-7 encoded values in the title parameter to a new issue page, which may be interpreted as script by Internet Explorer 7 and 8.","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-2009-4459","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"redmine:redmine","products":["redmine:redmine"],"type":"xss","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4460"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4458"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-12-30","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-44030","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-12-06"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-37156","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-05"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4929","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-10-08"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4079","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-11-25"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-47258","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-05"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-47259","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-05"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-47260","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-05"}],"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":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary scripts via UTF-7 encoded titles in Redmine, potentially leading to code execution or account takeover.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-4459/"}
