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-2018-5280 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Sonicwall Sonicos. 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-2018-5280/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-5280/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-5280","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-5280/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-5280","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8x78-9962-6w9r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SonicWall SonicOS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Cross-site scripting vulnerability in SonicWall SonicOS allows attackers to inject scripts via SSO configuration screens, potentially compromising user sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"sonicos","vendor":"sonicwall"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/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":"SonicWall SonicOS on Network Security Appliance (NSA) 2016 Q4 devices has XSS via the Configure SSO screens.","ecosystems":[],"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":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-5280","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"sonicwall:sonicos","products":["sonicwall:sonicos"],"type":"xss","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-5281"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-5279"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-01-08","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SonicWall SonicOS Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2020-5135","kev_date_added":"2022-03-15","published":"2020-10-12"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"SonicWall SonicOS Improper Access Control","id":"CVE-2024-40766","kev_date_added":"2024-09-09","published":"2024-08-23"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"SonicWall SonicOS SSLVPN Improper Authentication","id":"CVE-2024-53704","kev_date_added":"2025-02-18","published":"2025-01-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Denial of service in SonicOS","id":"CVE-2025-40600","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in SonicOS","id":"CVE-2024-22394","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in SonicOS","id":"CVE-2022-22274","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in SonicOS","id":"CVE-2019-7475","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-02"}],"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"Cross-site scripting vulnerability in SonicWall SonicOS allows attackers to inject scripts via SSO configuration screens, potentially compromising user sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-5280/"}
