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-2011-4090 exists.\n\nAffected product: S9y Serendipity. 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-2011-4090/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4090/index.md)","id":"CVE-2011-4090","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4090/index.md","name":"CVE-2011-4090","record":{"aliases":["CVE-2011-4365","CVE-2011-4366","GHSA-q53h-rp87-x968"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Serendipity blog software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Cross-site scripting in the karma plugin allows attackers to escalate privileges within the Serendipity blog application.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"serendipity","vendor":"s9y"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Serendipity before 1.6 has an XSS issue in the karma plugin which may allow privilege escalation.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2011-11-03","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2011-11-03","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"36283","stars":null,"title":"S9Y Serendipity 1.5.5 - 'serendipity[filter][bp.ALT]' Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in serendipity","id":"CVE-2011-4090","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"s9y:serendipity","products":["s9y:serendipity"],"type":"xss","year":"2011"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4091"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4089"},"products":["serendipity"],"published":"2019-11-26","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-1449","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-05-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-1452","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-05-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10964","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-1134","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-10752","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-05-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-10082","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-12-30"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-31576","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-16"}],"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":"2024-08-06","vendors":["serendipity"]},"summary":"Cross-site scripting in the karma plugin allows attackers to escalate privileges within the Serendipity blog application.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4090/"}
