An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-4843 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Pegasystems Pega Platform. 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-2023-4843/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4843/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-4843","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4843/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-4843","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jmp8-vc2x-6f9g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Pega Platform","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated administrators can inject HTML into Visual Business Director name fields, potentially leading to script execution or security bypass.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Pega","cpe":[{"product":"pega_platform","vendor":"pega"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"},{"id":"CWE-74","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component"}],"description":"Pega Platform versions 7.1 to 8.8.3 are affected by an HTML Injection issue with a name field utilized in Visual Business Director, however this field can only be modified by an authenticated administrative user.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Pega Platform","id":"CVE-2023-4843","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"SourceCodester Simple Membership System club_edit_query.php sql injection","id":"CVE-2023-4844"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Social Sharing Plugin – Social Warfare","id":"CVE-2023-4842"},"products":["Pega Platform"],"published":"2023-09-08","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in Pega Platform","id":"CVE-2023-32090","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-15390","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-12"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8774","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-29"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Pega Infinity","id":"CVE-2025-2160","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-04-14"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in Pega Platform","id":"CVE-2023-28094","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-22"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16387","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-26"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Pega Infinity","id":"CVE-2023-26465","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-09"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-25","vendors":["Pegasystems"]},"summary":"Authenticated administrators can inject HTML into Visual Business Director name fields, potentially leading to script execution or security bypass.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4843/"}
