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-2019-16960 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2019-16960/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16960/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-16960","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16960/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-16960","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-66g2-4363-r37f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Web Help Desk","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts in victim browsers via crafted CSV templates in SolarWinds Web Help Desk.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"web_help_desk","vendor":"solarwinds"}],"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":"SolarWinds Web Help Desk 12.7.0 allows XSS via a CSV template file with a crafted Location Name field.","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 n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16960","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16961"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16959"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2021-01-04","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SolarWinds Web Help Desk Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2025-40551","kev_date_added":"2026-02-03","published":"2026-01-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SolarWinds Web Help Desk Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2025-26399","kev_date_added":"2026-03-09","published":"2025-09-23"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SolarWinds Web Help Desk Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2024-28986","kev_date_added":"2024-08-15","published":"2024-08-13"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"SolarWinds Web Help Desk Hardcoded Credential","id":"CVE-2024-28987","kev_date_added":"2024-10-15","published":"2024-08-21"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"SolarWinds Web Help Desk Security Control Bypass","id":"CVE-2025-40536","kev_date_added":"2026-02-12","published":"2026-01-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SolarWinds Web Help Desk SAML Authentication Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-28323","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SolarWinds Web Help Desk Authentication Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-40552","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-01-28"}],"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":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts in victim browsers via crafted CSV templates in SolarWinds Web Help Desk.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16960/"}
