An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, 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-2010-0440 exists.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software. 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-2010-0440/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-0440/index.md)","id":"CVE-2010-0440","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-0440/index.md","name":"CVE-2010-0440","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v9jr-23rj-wr7x"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Secure Desktop","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script via crafted POST parameters in Cisco Secure Desktop, potentially leading to session hijacking or malicious actions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"adaptive_security_appliance_software","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"secure_desktop","vendor":"cisco"}],"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 +CSCOT+/translation in Cisco Secure Desktop 3.4.2048, and other versions before 3.5; as used in Cisco ASA appliance before 8.2(1), 8.1(2.7), and 8.0(5); allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted POST parameter, which is not properly handled by an eval statement in binary/mainv.js that writes to start.html.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2010-01-26","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2010-01-26","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"33567","stars":null,"title":"Cisco Secure Desktop 3.x - 'translation' Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0440","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:adaptive_security_appliance_software","products":["cisco:adaptive_security_appliance_software"],"type":"xss","year":"2010"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0441"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0439"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2010-02-03","related":[{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) and Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2025-20333","kev_date_added":"2025-09-25","published":"2025-09-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) SNMP Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2016-6366","kev_date_added":"2022-05-24","published":"2016-08-18"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) and Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Heap Inspection","id":"CVE-2026-20349","kev_date_added":"2026-08-11","published":"2026-08-11"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Cisco ASA and FTD Denial of Service","id":"CVE-2024-20353","kev_date_added":"2024-04-24","published":"2024-04-24"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) CLI Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2016-6367","kev_date_added":"2022-05-24","published":"2016-08-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Cisco ASA and FTD Read-Only Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2020-3452","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-07-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Cisco ASA and FTD Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2020-3259","kev_date_added":"2024-02-15","published":"2020-05-06"}],"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":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script via crafted POST parameters in Cisco Secure Desktop, potentially leading to session hijacking or malicious actions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-0440/"}
