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-2021-37504 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- jquery-file-upload (npm): affected all versions up to 4.0.11; no fix listed\n- jquery-file-upload (npm): affected all versions up to 4.0.11; 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-2021-37504/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-37504/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-37504","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-37504/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-37504","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-43x9-7hfv-mxrf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"jQuery Upload File","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts via crafted file names in jQuery-Upload-File, requiring library upgrades to mitigate.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"jquery_upload_file","vendor":"hayageek"}],"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":"A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the fileNameStr parameter of jQuery-Upload-File v4.0.11 allows attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML via a crafted file with a Javascript payload in the file name.","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":"jQuery-Upload-File XSS in fileNameStr","id":"CVE-2021-37504","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Access Control vulnerability in Dolibarr","id":"CVE-2021-37517"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["4.0.11"],"package":"jquery-file-upload","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-43x9-7hfv-mxrf"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["4.0.11"],"package":"jquery-file-upload","purl":"pkg:npm/jquery-file-upload","source":"GHSA-43x9-7hfv-mxrf"}],"prev":{"headline":"Cross site scripting in automad/automad","id":"CVE-2021-37502"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2022-02-25","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type in jquery-file-upload","id":"CVE-2018-9207","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-11-19"}],"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":"2026-07-09","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts via crafted file names in jQuery-Upload-File, requiring library upgrades to mitigate.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-37504/"}
