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-2017-9516 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- craftcms/cms (Packagist): affected all versions; fixed in 2.6.2982\n- craftcms/cms (Packagist): affected all versions; fixed in 2.6.2982\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-2017-9516/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9516/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-9516","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9516/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-9516","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6pvw-hh48-jx7p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Craft CMS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts in user browsers by uploading malicious SVG files to Craft CMS.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"craft_cms","vendor":"craftcms"}],"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":"Craft CMS before 2.6.2982 allows for a potential XSS attack vector by uploading a malicious SVG file.","ecosystems":["Packagist"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2017-06-08","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2017-06-08","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"42143","stars":null,"title":"Craft CMS 2.6 - Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Craft CMS XSS Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-9516","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Packagist","product":"craftcms:craft_cms","products":["craftcms:craft_cms"],"type":"xss","year":"2017"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-9517"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.6.2982"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"craftcms/cms","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-6pvw-hh48-jx7p"},{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.6.2982"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"craftcms/cms","purl":"pkg:composer/craftcms/cms","source":"GHSA-6pvw-hh48-jx7p"}],"prev":{"headline":"Deserialization in Bamboo","id":"CVE-2017-9514"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-06-08","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Craft CMS Code Injection","id":"CVE-2025-32432","kev_date_added":"2026-03-20","published":"2025-04-25"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Craft CMS Code Injection","id":"CVE-2024-56145","kev_date_added":"2025-06-02","published":"2024-12-18"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Craft CMS Code Injection","id":"CVE-2025-23209","kev_date_added":"2025-02-20","published":"2025-01-18"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Craft CMS External Control of Assumed-Immutable Web Parameter","id":"CVE-2025-35939","kev_date_added":"2025-06-02","published":"2025-05-07"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Craft CMS Remote Code Execution vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-41892","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-13"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Craft CMS Remote Code Injection","id":"CVE-2021-27903","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-06-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SEOmatic for CraftCMS allows Server-Side Template Injection","id":"CVE-2020-9757","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-04"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts in user browsers by uploading malicious SVG files to Craft CMS.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9516/"}
