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-2021-33041 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- vmd (npm): affected all versions up to 1.34.0; no fix listed\n- vmd (npm): affected all versions up to 1.34.0; no fix listed\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-2021-33041/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-33041/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-33041","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-33041/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-33041","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pfr3-87q3-65rc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMD markdown library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Cross-site scripting in the VMD library allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via Electron remote code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"vmd","vendor":"vmd_project"}],"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":"vmd through 1.34.0 allows 'div class=\"markdown-body\"' XSS, as demonstrated by Electron remote code execution via require('child_process').execSync('calc.exe') on Windows and a similar attack on macOS.","ecosystems":["npm"],"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 vmd","id":"CVE-2021-33041","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Dahua IP Camera Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2021-33044"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.34.0"],"package":"vmd","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-pfr3-87q3-65rc"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.34.0"],"package":"vmd","purl":"pkg:npm/vmd","source":"GHSA-pfr3-87q3-65rc"}],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site Scripting in epubjs","id":"CVE-2021-33040"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2021-05-17","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"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":"2024-08-03","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Cross-site scripting in the VMD library allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via Electron remote code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-33041/"}
