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-2022-40440 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- mxgraph (npm): affected all versions up to 4.2.2; no fix listed\n- mxgraph (npm): affected all versions up to 4.2.2; 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-2022-40440/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40440/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-40440","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40440/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-40440","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j4rv-pr9g-q8jv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"JavaScript diagramming library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser via the setTooltips function in the mxGraph library.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mxgraph","vendor":"jgraph"}],"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":"mxGraph v4.2.2 was discovered to contain a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability via the setTooltips() function.","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":"mxGraph vulnerable to cross-site scripting in setTooltips function","id":"CVE-2022-40440","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-40443"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["4.2.2"],"package":"mxgraph","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-j4rv-pr9g-q8jv"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["4.2.2"],"package":"mxgraph","purl":"pkg:npm/mxgraph","source":"GHSA-j4rv-pr9g-q8jv"}],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-40439"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2022-10-11","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"mxGraph vulnerable to XXE attacks","id":"CVE-2017-18197","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-24"}],"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":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser via the setTooltips function in the mxGraph library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40440/"}
