An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-16204 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Arne Brachhold Google XML Sitemaps. 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-2018-16204/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-16204/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-16204","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-16204/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-16204","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v8gc-wjp3-r6vr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML into Google XML Sitemaps, potentially compromising user sessions or site integrity.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[{"product":"google_xml_sitemaps","vendor":"google_xml_sitemaps_project"}],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Google XML Sitemaps Version 4.0.9 and earlier allows remote authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.","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 in Google XML Sitemaps","id":"CVE-2018-16204","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in GROWI","id":"CVE-2018-16205"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in PgpoolAdmin","id":"CVE-2018-16203"},"products":["Google XML Sitemaps"],"published":"2019-01-09","related":[{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Google XML Sitemaps \u003c 4.1.3 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-25088","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-06-20"}],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["Arne Brachhold"]},"summary":"Authenticated attackers can inject arbitrary web script or HTML into Google XML Sitemaps, potentially compromising user sessions or site integrity.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-16204/"}
