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-2018-20755 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- modx/revolution (Packagist): affected all versions; fixed in 2.7.1-pl\n- modx/revolution (Packagist): affected all versions; fixed in 2.7.1-pl\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-2018-20755/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-20755/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-20755","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-20755/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-20755","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q4c2-q63g-62j7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MODX CMS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can inject malicious scripts via the User Photo field in MODX Revolution, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","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":"MODX Revolution through v2.7.0-pl allows XSS via the User Photo field.","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 vulnerable to XSS attack through its User Photo field","id":"CVE-2018-20755","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Packagist","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2018"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"MODX Revolution allows XSS via document resources","id":"CVE-2018-20756"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.7.1-pl"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"modx/revolution","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-q4c2-q63g-62j7"},{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.7.1-pl"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"modx/revolution","purl":"pkg:composer/modx/revolution","source":"GHSA-q4c2-q63g-62j7"}],"prev":{"headline":"Kaseya VSA Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2018-20753"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-02-06","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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An attacker can inject malicious scripts via the User Photo field in MODX Revolution, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-20755/"}
