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-2019-11928 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Facebook WhatsApp Desktop. 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-2019-11928/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-11928/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-11928","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-11928/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-11928","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m3fj-55xx-478h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WhatsApp Desktop","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute cross-site scripting attacks in WhatsApp Desktop by sending a specially crafted live location message with a malicious link.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"facebook","cpe":[{"product":"whatsapp_desktop","vendor":"whatsapp"}],"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":"An input validation issue in WhatsApp Desktop versions prior to v0.3.4932 could have allowed cross-site scripting upon clicking on a link from a specially crafted live location message.","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 WhatsApp Desktop","id":"CVE-2019-11928","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in HHVM","id":"CVE-2019-11929"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in WhatsApp for Android","id":"CVE-2019-11927"},"products":["WhatsApp Desktop"],"published":"2020-09-03","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Security feature bypass in WhatsApp Desktop","id":"CVE-2020-1889","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-03"}],"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":"2024-08-04","vendors":["Facebook"]},"summary":"An attacker can execute cross-site scripting attacks in WhatsApp Desktop by sending a specially crafted live location message with a malicious link.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-11928/"}
