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-2017-9068 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- modx/revolution (Packagist): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.7\n- modx/revolution (Packagist): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.7\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-2017-9068/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9068/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-9068","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9068/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-9068","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vrw6-7vgj-vj7x"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MODX CMS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser via reflected XSS in the MODX Revolution setup page.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"modx_revolution","vendor":"modx"}],"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":"In MODX Revolution before 2.5.7, an attacker is able to trigger Reflected XSS by injecting payloads into several fields on the setup page, as demonstrated by the database_type parameter.","ecosystems":["Packagist"],"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":"MODX Revolution Reflected XSS","id":"CVE-2017-9068","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Packagist","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2017"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"MODX Revolution allows overwriting .htaccess","id":"CVE-2017-9069"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.5.7"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"modx/revolution","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-vrw6-7vgj-vj7x"},{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.5.7"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"modx/revolution","purl":"pkg:composer/modx/revolution","source":"GHSA-vrw6-7vgj-vj7x"}],"prev":{"headline":"MODX Revolution Directory Traversal Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-9067"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-05-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-7321","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-7324","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-30"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"XML External Entity vulnerability in MODX CMS","id":"CVE-2020-25911","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-31"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"MODX Revolution allows overwriting .htaccess","id":"CVE-2017-9069","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-05-18"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-7322","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-30"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Server-side request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-7323","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-30"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"File upload in Gallery","id":"CVE-2019-1010123","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-23"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser via reflected XSS in the MODX Revolution setup page.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9068/"}
