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-2016-9490 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: ManageEngine Applications 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-2016-9490/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9490/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-9490","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9490/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-9490","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jm36-8m9x-wq28"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Applications Manager","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts in victim browsers via a reflected XSS flaw in the LIMIT parameter, potentially leading to session hijacking or data theft.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"certcc","cpe":[{"product":"applications_manager","vendor":"manageengine"}],"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":"ManageEngine Applications Manager versions 12 and 13 before build 13200 suffer from a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability.
