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-2017-6788 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Anyconnect Secure Mobility Client. 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-2017-6788/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6788/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-6788","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6788/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-6788","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rg93-gvp9-mv6g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco AnyConnect Client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser via the WebLaunch feature, potentially compromising user sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"anyconnect_secure_mobility_client","vendor":"cisco"}],"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":"The WebLaunch functionality of Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client Software contains a vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the affected software. The vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation of some parameters that are passed to the WebLaunch function of the affected software.
