GmbH BlueSpice, published on 30 Oct 2023. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-42431 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Hallo Welt! GmbH BlueSpice. 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-2023-42431/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-42431/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-42431","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-42431/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-42431","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wh3j-5jfr-mvrv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"BlueSpice extension","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A logged-in user can inject arbitrary HTML into the profile image dialog, potentially executing scripts in other users' browsers.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"HW","cpe":[{"product":"bluespice","vendor":"hallowelt"}],"cvss":{"score":2.1,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"},{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in BlueSpiceAvatars extension of BlueSpice allows logged in user to inject arbitrary HTML into the profile image dialog on Special:Preferences.
