An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2021-31761 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2021-31761 is a critical cross-site scripting vulnerability in Webmin Webmin, published on 25 Apr 2021. 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-2021-31761 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Webmin Webmin. 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-2021-31761/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31761/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-31761","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31761/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-31761","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v8w5-257f-g592"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Webmin server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Reflected XSS in Webmin allows attackers to execute remote commands via the running process feature, potentially leading to full system compromise.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"webmin","vendor":"webmin"}],"cvss":{"score":9.6,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Webmin 1.973 is affected by reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) to achieve Remote Command Execution through Webmin's running process feature.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2021-04-21","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":5,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2021-04-21T19:46:43Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Mesh3l911/CVE-2021-31761","stars":5,"title":"Exploiting a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack to get a Remote Command Execution (RCE) through the Webmin's running process feature"},{"date":"2021-04-21T20:00:09Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/electronicbots/CVE-2021-31761","stars":4,"title":"Exploiting a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack to get a Remote Command Execution (RCE) through the Webmin's running process feature"},{"date":"2021-07-20","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"50144","stars":null,"title":"Webmin 1.973 - 'run.cgi' Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-31761","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"webmin:webmin","products":["webmin:webmin"],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-31762"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-31760"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2021-04-25","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Webmin Command Injection","id":"CVE-2019-15107","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2019-08-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-2201","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-11-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1196","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-03-15"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Webmin CGI Command Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-12828","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-36446","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-07-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-35769","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-8712","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-14"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Reflected XSS in Webmin allows attackers to execute remote commands via the running process feature, potentially leading to full system compromise.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31761/"}
