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-2020-8288 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Rocket.chat Rocket.chat. 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-2020-8288/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8288/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-8288","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8288/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-8288","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q8vp-9pjp-8vc7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Rocket.Chat server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An XSS vulnerability in Rocket.Chat server allows attackers to inject scripts via the value parameter, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[{"product":"rocket.chat","vendor":"rocket.chat"}],"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":"The `specializedRendering` function in Rocket.Chat server before 3.9.2 allows a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability by way of the `value` parameter.","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 Rocket.Chat server","id":"CVE-2020-8288","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"rocket.chat:rocket.chat","products":["rocket.chat:rocket.chat"],"type":"xss","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in Backblaze","id":"CVE-2020-8289"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Node.js versions before 10.23.1, 12.20.1, 14.15.4, 15.5.1 allow two copies of a header field in an HTTP request (for example, two Transfer-E","id":"CVE-2020-8287"},"products":["Rocket.Chat server"],"published":"2021-01-21","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in Rocket.Chat","id":"CVE-2026-58066","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in Rocket.Chat","id":"CVE-2026-29198","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Rocket.Chat","id":"CVE-2023-28316","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in Rocket.chat - Electron Desktop","id":"CVE-2022-44567","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-12-23"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in Rocket.Chat server","id":"CVE-2021-22910","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in Rocket.Chat server","id":"CVE-2021-22911","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-29594","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-30"}],"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"An XSS vulnerability in Rocket.Chat server allows attackers to inject scripts via the value parameter, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8288/"}
