Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-36827 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-2020-36827/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36827/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-36827","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36827/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-36827","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5w28-7mvj-3c7j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Perl XAO::Web module","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts via unescaped JSON output in the XAO::Web Perl module, potentially leading to code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-791","name":"Incomplete Filtering of Special Elements"}],"description":"The XAO::Web module before 1.84 for Perl mishandles \u003c and \u003e characters in JSON output during use of json-embed in Web::Action.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-36827","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"DiscuzX install_function.php show_next_step cross site scripting","id":"CVE-2020-36828"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"AwesomestCode LiveBot parseMessage.js parseSend cross site scripting","id":"CVE-2020-36826"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2024-03-24","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-03-28","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts via unescaped JSON output in the XAO::Web Perl module, potentially leading to code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36827/"}
