An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2022-40931 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/dutchcoders/transfer.sh (Go): affected all versions up to 1.4.0; no fix listed\n- github.com/dutchcoders/transfer.sh (Go): affected all versions up to 1.4.0; 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-2022-40931/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40931/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-40931","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40931/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-40931","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pwq7-f7f9-cm2j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"File transfer service","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Transfer.sh allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"transfer.sh","vendor":"dutchcoders"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","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":"dutchcoders Transfer.sh 1.4.0 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS).","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Dutchoders transfer.sh contains an XSS vulnerability via malicious file upload","id":"CVE-2022-40931","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-40932"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.4.0"],"package":"github.com/dutchcoders/transfer.sh","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-pwq7-f7f9-cm2j"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.4.0"],"package":"github.com/dutchcoders/transfer.sh","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/dutchcoders/transfer.sh","source":"GHSA-pwq7-f7f9-cm2j"}],"prev":{"headline":"XXL-JOB contains a Command execution vulnerability in background tasks","id":"CVE-2022-40929"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2022-09-29","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Path Traversal in Dutchcoders transfer.sh","id":"CVE-2021-33497","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-24"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Dutchcoders transfer.sh","id":"CVE-2021-33496","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-24"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-20","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Transfer.sh allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40931/"}
