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-2017-9070 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-2017-9070/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9070/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-9070","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9070/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-9070","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7hhg-xj2h-5vq9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MODX Revolution CMS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker with resource edit permissions can inject XSS payloads into post titles, potentially executing malicious scripts in other users' browsers.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"modx_revolution","vendor":"modx"}],"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":"In MODX Revolution before 2.5.7, a user with resource edit permissions can inject an XSS payload into the title of any post via the pagetitle parameter to connectors/index.php.","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 cross-site scripting vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-9070","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 XSS via HTTP Host header","id":"CVE-2017-9071"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.5.7"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"modx/revolution","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-7hhg-xj2h-5vq9"},{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.5.7"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"modx/revolution","purl":"pkg:composer/modx/revolution","source":"GHSA-7hhg-xj2h-5vq9"}],"prev":{"headline":"MODX Revolution allows overwriting .htaccess","id":"CVE-2017-9069"},"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 with resource edit permissions can inject XSS payloads into post titles, potentially executing malicious scripts in other users' browsers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9070/"}
