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-2016-6283 exists.\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-2016-6283/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6283/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-6283","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6283/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-6283","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g266-84x9-9m56"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Atlassian Confluence","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the newFileName parameter in Atlassian Confluence, 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":"confluence","vendor":"atlassian"}],"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 Atlassian Confluence before 5.10.6 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the newFileName parameter to pages/doeditattachment.action.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2017-01-04","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2017-01-04","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"40989","stars":null,"title":"Atlassian Confluence \u003c 5.10.6 - Persistent Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6283","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6285"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"NETGEAR Multiple Routers Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2016-6277"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-01-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Server-side request forgery in Confluence Server","id":"CVE-2019-3395","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path traversal in Confluence Server","id":"CVE-2019-3394","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-29"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Confluence Data Center","id":"CVE-2019-20406","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-06"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Other in Confluence Server","id":"CVE-2019-15006","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-12-19"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Confluence","id":"CVE-2017-18085","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-02"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18086","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-02"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Confluence","id":"CVE-2017-16856","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-05"}],"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the newFileName parameter in Atlassian Confluence, potentially leading to session hijacking or malicious actions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6283/"}
