Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-30609 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- matrix-react-sdk (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 3.71.0\n- matrix-react-sdk (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 3.71.0\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-2023-30609/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-30609/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-30609","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-30609/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-30609","record":{"aliases":["CLEANSTART-2024-ZD82819","GHSA-xv83-x443-7rmw","openSUSE-SU-2024:12884-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:12895-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["other"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Matrix React SDK","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can inject HTML into search results via plaintext messages, though CSP prevents script execution, affecting Matrix client users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"matrix-react-sdk","vendor":"matrix-react-sdk_project"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-74","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component"}],"description":"matrix-react-sdk is a react-based SDK for inserting a Matrix chat/VoIP client into a web page. Prior to version 3.71.0, plain text messages containing HTML tags are rendered as HTML in the search results. To exploit this, an attacker needs to trick a user into searching for a specific message containing an HTML injection payload. No cross-site scripting attack is possible due to the hardcoded content security policy. Version 3.71.0 of the SDK patches over the issue. As a workaround, restarting the client will clear the HTML injection.","ecosystems":["npm","openSUSE:Tumbleweed"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"matrix-react-sdk vulnerable to HTML injection in search results via plaintext message highlighting","id":"CVE-2023-30609","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"AWS SDK for Rust will log AWS credentials when TRACE-level logging is enabled for request sending","id":"CVE-2023-30610"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["3.71.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"matrix-react-sdk","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-xv83-x443-7rmw"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["3.71.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"matrix-react-sdk","purl":"pkg:npm/matrix-react-sdk","source":"GHSA-xv83-x443-7rmw"},{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Tumbleweed","fixed":["1.11.30-1.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"element-desktop","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/element-desktop\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Tumbleweed","source":"openSUSE-SU-2024:12895-1"},{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Tumbleweed","fixed":["1.11.30-1.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"element-web","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/element-web\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Tumbleweed","source":"openSUSE-SU-2024:12884-1"}],"prev":{"headline":"Parser contains an inefficient regular expression in sqlparse","id":"CVE-2023-30608"},"products":["matrix-react-sdk"],"published":"2023-04-25","related":[{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"Prototype pollution in matrix-react-sdk","id":"CVE-2023-28103","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-28"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross site scripting in Export Chat feature","id":"CVE-2023-37259","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-18"},{"cvss_score":4.2,"headline":"File upload local preview can run embedded scripts after user interaction","id":"CVE-2021-32622","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-17"},{"cvss_score":2.6,"headline":"User content sandbox can be confused into opening arbitrary documents","id":"CVE-2021-21320","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-02"}],"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":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"openSUSE"},{"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":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-03","vendors":["matrix-org"]},"summary":"Attackers can inject HTML into search results via plaintext messages, though CSP prevents script execution, affecting Matrix client users.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-30609/"}
