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-2017-7437 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: NetIQ Privileged Account 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-2017-7437/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7437/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-7437","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7437/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-7437","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-36hh-v57m-3mm5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Privileged Account Manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Cross-site scripting in NetIQ Privileged Account Manager allows attackers to inject scripts via json parameters, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microfocus","cpe":[{"product":"privileged_account_manager","vendor":"netiq"}],"cvss":{"score":4.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"NetIQ Privileged Account Manager before 3.1 Patch Update 3 allowed cross site scripting attacks via the \"type\" and \"account\" parameters of json requests.","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 attacks against NetIQ Privileged Account Manager","id":"CVE-2017-7437","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"DOM cross site scripting attack against NetIQ Privileged Account Manager","id":"CVE-2017-7438"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"libzypp accepts unsigned packages even when configured to check signatures","id":"CVE-2017-7436"},"products":["Privileged Account Manager"],"published":"2018-03-05","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in NetIQ Privileged Account Manager (PAM) 3.1 and 3.2","id":"CVE-2018-1343","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-06"},{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"DOM cross site scripting attack against NetIQ Privileged Account Manager","id":"CVE-2017-7438","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-02"}],"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":"2024-09-16","vendors":["NetIQ"]},"summary":"Cross-site scripting in NetIQ Privileged Account Manager allows attackers to inject scripts via json parameters, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7437/"}
