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-2017-4978 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: EMC RSA Adaptive Authentication (On-Premise) RSA Adaptive Authentication (On-Premise) versions prior to 7.3 P2 (exclusive). 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-2017-4978/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-4978/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-4978","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-4978/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-4978","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f4xj-xc2c-3wxg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"RSA Adaptive Authentication","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Cross-site scripting in RSA Adaptive Authentication allows attackers to compromise the system via malicious scripts.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"adaptive_authentication_\\(on_premise\\)","vendor":"rsa"}],"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":"EMC RSA Adaptive Authentication (On-Premise) versions prior to 7.3 P2 (exclusive) contains a fix for a cross-site scripting vulnerability that could potentially be exploited by malicious users to compromise the affected system.","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 EMC RSA Adaptive Authentication (On-Premise) RSA Adaptive Authentication (On-Premise) versions prior to 7.3 P2 (exclusive)","id":"CVE-2017-4978","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in EMC Isilon OneFS OneFS 8.0.1.0, OneFS 8.0.0.0 8.0.0.2, OneFS 7.2.1.0 - 7.2.1.3, OneFS 7.2.0.x","id":"CVE-2017-4979"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in RSA Archer Security Operations Management with RSA Unified Collector Framework versions prior to 1.3.1.52","id":"CVE-2017-4977"},"products":["EMC RSA Adaptive Authentication (On-Premise) RSA Adaptive Authentication (On-Premise) versions prior to 7.3 P2 (exclusive)"],"published":"2017-05-19","related":[],"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 in RSA Adaptive Authentication allows attackers to compromise the system via malicious scripts.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-4978/"}
