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-2016-5756 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: NetIQ Access Manager. 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-2016-5756/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5756/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-5756","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5756/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-5756","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wvgj-562p-m832"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NetIQ Access Manager","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in NetIQ Access Manager allows attackers to hijack user sessions via malicious web tool components.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microfocus","cpe":[{"product":"access_manager","vendor":"netiq"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/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":"Multiple components of the web tools in NetIQ Access Manager 4.1 before 4.1.2 Hot Fix 1 and 4.2 before 4.2.2 were vulnerable to Reflected Cross Site Scripting attacks which could be used to hijack user sessions: nps/servlet/frameservice, nps/servlet/webacc, roma/admin/cntl, roma/jsp/admin/appliance/devicedetail_edit.jsp, roma/jsp/admin/managementip/mgmt_ip_details_frameset.jsp, roma/jsp/admin/managementip/mgmt_ip_details_middleframe.jsp, roma/jsp/volsc/monitoring/appliance.jsp, and roma/jsp/volsc/monitoring/graph.jsp.","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 NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5756","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5757"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5755"},"products":["NetIQ Access Manager"],"published":"2017-03-23","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"File upload in NetIQ Access Manager, Administrative Console","id":"CVE-2018-1342","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2017-14803","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5757","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"File upload in NetIQ iManager","id":"CVE-2016-5750","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5758","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5752","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5754","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"}],"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":"Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in NetIQ Access Manager allows attackers to hijack user sessions via malicious web tool components.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5756/"}
