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-2018-6590 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: CA API Developer Portal. 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-2018-6590/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6590/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-6590","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6590/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-6590","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6rgv-3m65-6x4r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"API Developer Portal","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser via reflected XSS in the CA API Developer Portal.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ca","cpe":[{"product":"ca_api_developer_portal","vendor":"broadcom"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/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":"CA API Developer Portal 4.x, prior to v4.2.5.3 and v4.2.7.1, has an unspecified reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability.","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 CA API Developer Portal","id":"CVE-2018-6590","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Converse.js Exposure of Sensitive Information","id":"CVE-2018-6591"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in CA Spectrum","id":"CVE-2018-6589"},"products":["CA API Developer Portal"],"published":"2018-08-03","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in CA API Developer Portal","id":"CVE-2020-11658","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in CA API Developer Portal","id":"CVE-2020-11666","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-15"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Missing authorization in CA API Developer Portal","id":"CVE-2020-11661","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-15"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in CA API Developer Portal","id":"CVE-2020-11662","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-15"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in CA API Developer Portal","id":"CVE-2020-11660","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-15"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Open redirect in CA API Developer Portal","id":"CVE-2020-11663","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-15"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Open redirect in CA API Developer Portal","id":"CVE-2020-11664","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-15"}],"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":"2024-09-16","vendors":["ca technologies"]},"summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser via reflected XSS in the CA API Developer Portal.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6590/"}
