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-2016-6209 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2016-6209/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6209/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-6209","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6209/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-6209","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gm59-fphq-rmww","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-6209"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Nagios monitoring","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An XSS vulnerability in Nagios allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"nagios","vendor":"nagios"}],"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":"Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Nagios.","ecosystems":[],"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 n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6209","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6210"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6207"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-03-31","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1959","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-06-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-0726","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-06-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-7313","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-31"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-5009","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-31"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9565","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-12-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Nagios Log Server 2.1.3 has CSRF.","id":"CVE-2020-6585","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-16"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-10089","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-02-15"}],"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 XSS vulnerability in Nagios allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6209/"}
