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-2017-6503 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-2017-6503/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6503/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-6503","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6503/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-6503","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-6503","GHSA-rhmh-8w93-hhpf","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-6503"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"qBittorrent WebUI","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser via the qBittorrent WebUI due to insufficient output escaping.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"qbittorrent","vendor":"qbittorrent"}],"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":"WebUI in qBittorrent before 3.3.11 did not escape many values, which could potentially lead to XSS.","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-2017-6503","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6504"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6502"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-03-06","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"qBittorrent Web UI Default Credentials Lead to RCE","id":"CVE-2023-30801","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-13640","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-17"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-51774","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-02"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-12778","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-05-09"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6504","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-06"},{"cvss_score":4,"headline":"Path traversal in qBittorrent","id":"CVE-2025-54310","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-18"}],"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":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser via the qBittorrent WebUI due to insufficient output escaping.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6503/"}
