An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-29041 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- express (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 4.19.2\n- express (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 4.19.2\n- express (npm): affected from 5.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 5.0.0-beta.3\n- express (npm): affected from 5.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 5.0.0-beta.3\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-2024-29041/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-29041/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-29041","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-29041/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-29041","record":{"aliases":["AZL-37137","AZL-43690","AZL-44361","CLSA-2026-1792597402","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-29041","GHSA-rv95-896h-c2vc","MINI-pj65-wr82-8q53","ROOT-APP-NPM-CVE-2024-29041","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-29041"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Node.js web framework","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass redirect allow lists in Express.js applications using malformed URLs, leading to open redirects.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"open_redirect"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"express","vendor":"openjsf"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","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-601","name":"URL Redirection to Untrusted Site"},{"id":"CWE-1286","name":"Improper Validation of Syntactic Correctness of Input"}],"description":"Express.js minimalist web framework for node. Versions of Express.js prior to 4.19.0 and all pre-release alpha and beta versions of 5.0 are affected by an open redirect vulnerability using malformed URLs. When a user of Express performs a redirect using a user-provided URL Express performs an encode [using `encodeurl`](https://github.com/pillarjs/encodeurl) on the contents before passing it to the `location` header. This can cause malformed URLs to be evaluated in unexpected ways by common redirect allow list implementations in Express applications, leading to an Open Redirect via bypass of a properly implemented allow list. The main method impacted is `res.location()` but this is also called from within `res.redirect()`. The vulnerability is fixed in 4.19.2 and 5.0.0-beta.3.","ecosystems":["npm"],"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":"Express.js Open Redirect in malformed URLs","id":"CVE-2024-29041","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"open_redirect","year":"2024"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Translate Cache Poisoning Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-29042"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["4.19.2"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"express","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-rv95-896h-c2vc"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["4.19.2"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"express","purl":"pkg:npm/express","source":"GHSA-rv95-896h-c2vc"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["5.0.0-beta.3"],"introduced":["5.0.0-alpha.1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"express","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-rv95-896h-c2vc"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["5.0.0-beta.3"],"introduced":["5.0.0-alpha.1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"express","purl":"pkg:npm/express","source":"GHSA-rv95-896h-c2vc"}],"prev":{"headline":"Fapi Verify Quote: Does not detect if quote was not generated by TPM","id":"CVE-2024-29040"},"products":["express"],"published":"2024-03-25","related":[{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"No Charset in Content-Type Header in express","id":"CVE-2014-6393","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-09"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"express vulnerable to XSS via response.redirect()","id":"CVE-2024-43796","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-10"},{"cvss_score":4,"headline":"Preload arbitrary resources by injecting additional `Link` headers","id":"CVE-2024-10491","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-29"}],"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":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-02","vendors":["expressjs"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass redirect allow lists in Express.js applications using malformed URLs, leading to open redirects.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-29041/"}
