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-2017-1000149 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Mahara Mahara. 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-2017-1000149/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-1000149/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-1000149","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-1000149/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-1000149","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8xwx-6c6f-2xqj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mahara ePortfolio","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Mahara allows attackers to execute scripts via window.opener, potentially leading to account takeover.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mahara","vendor":"mahara"}],"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":"Mahara 1.10 before 1.10.9 and 15.04 before 15.04.6 and 15.10 before 15.10.2 are vulnerable to XSS due to window.opener (target=\"_blank\" and window.open())","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000149","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"mahara:mahara","products":["mahara:mahara"],"type":"xss","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000150"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000148"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-11-03","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-45134","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-08-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-44544","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-40849","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000152","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000153","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000154","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-03"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-39335","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-08-26"}],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Mahara allows attackers to execute scripts via window.opener, potentially leading to account takeover.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-1000149/"}
