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-2021-41318 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Progress Whatsup Gold. 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-2021-41318/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-41318/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-41318","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-41318/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-41318","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g44x-884w-mh6f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Network monitoring software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary code in a victim's browser via unsanitized input in WhatsUp Gold.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"whatsup_gold","vendor":"progress"}],"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":"In Progress WhatsUp Gold prior to version 21.1.0, an application endpoint failed to adequately sanitize malicious input. which could allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code in a victim's browser.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2021-10-01","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2021-10-01","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"50366","stars":null,"title":"WhatsUpGold 21.0.3 - Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-41318","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"progress:whatsup_gold","products":["progress:whatsup_gold"],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-41320"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-41317"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2021-09-28","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Progress WhatsUp Gold SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2024-6670","kev_date_added":"2024-09-16","published":"2024-08-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Progress WhatsUp Gold Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2024-4885","kev_date_added":"2025-03-03","published":"2024-06-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold WriteDataFile Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-46909","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-02"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold Registry Overwrite Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-8785","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-02"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold getReport Missing Authentication Authentication Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-7763","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold GetStatisticalMonitorList SQL Injection Authentication Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-6671","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold WriteDataFile Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-4883","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-25"}],"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"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary code in a victim's browser via unsanitized input in WhatsUp Gold.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-41318/"}
