An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-45540 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2023-45540/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-45540/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-45540","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-45540/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-45540","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q6rf-xpm8-9wqx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Leave Management System","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary HTML code via the comment field in Jorani Leave Management System, potentially compromising user sessions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"leave_management_system","vendor":"jorani"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-74","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component"}],"description":"An issue in Jorani Leave Management System 1.0.3 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary HTML code via a crafted script to the comment field of the List of Leave requests page.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2023-10-06","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2023-10-06T12:43:54Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/SoundarXploit/CVE-2023-45540","stars":0,"title":"CVE-2023-45540 Jorani Leave Management System v1.0.3 –  HTML Injection"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-45540","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-45542"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-45539"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2023-10-16","related":[{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-48205","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-07"}],"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":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary HTML code via the comment field in Jorani Leave Management System, potentially compromising user sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-45540/"}
