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-2016-10851 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cpanel Cpanel. 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-2016-10851/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-10851/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-10851","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-10851/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-10851","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jpx7-mwfh-8jfw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"cPanel WHM","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the WHM PHP Configuration editor via self XSS, potentially compromising administrative sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"cpanel","vendor":"cpanel"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"cPanel before 11.54.0.4 allows self XSS in the WHM PHP Configuration editor interface (SEC-84).","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-10851","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cpanel:cpanel","products":["cpanel:cpanel"],"type":"xss","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-10852"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-10850"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-08-01","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"WebPros cPanel \u0026 WHM and WP2 (WordPress Squared) Missing Authentication for Critical Function","id":"CVE-2026-41940","kev_date_added":"2026-04-30","published":"2026-04-29"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"guestbook.cgi in cPanel 5.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the template parameter.","id":"CVE-2003-1425","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-20"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1769","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-03-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1770","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-03-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-26098","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-26100","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-26101","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-25"}],"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":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the WHM PHP Configuration editor via self XSS, potentially compromising administrative sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-10851/"}
