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-2009-4924 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- python-cjson (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 1.1.0\n- python-cjson (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 1.1.0\n- python-cjson (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 1.1.0\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-2009-4924/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-4924/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-4924","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-4924/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-4924","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-95jp-77w6-qj52","PYSEC-2010-26"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python JSON library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can exploit improper handling of forward slashes in cjson.encode to conduct cross-site scripting attacks against Firefox users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"python-cjson","vendor":"dan_pascu"}],"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":"Dan Pascu python-cjson 1.0.5 does not properly handle a ['/'] argument to cjson.encode, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct certain cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks involving Firefox and the end tag of a SCRIPT element.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"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 python-cjson","id":"CVE-2009-4924","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2009"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4925"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["1.1.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-cjson","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-95jp-77w6-qj52"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["1.1.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-cjson","purl":"pkg:pypi/python-cjson","source":"GHSA-95jp-77w6-qj52"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["1.1.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-cjson","purl":"pkg:pypi/python-cjson","source":"PYSEC-2010-26"}],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4923"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2010-07-02","related":[{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer in python-cjson","id":"CVE-2010-1666","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-07-02"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"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 exploit improper handling of forward slashes in cjson.encode to conduct cross-site scripting attacks against Firefox users.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-4924/"}
