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-2024-40618 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: NAVER Whale browser. 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-2024-40618/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40618/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-40618","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40618/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-40618","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4v7h-33pf-w9h6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NAVER Whale browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute malicious JavaScript in NAVER Whale browser due to improper sanitization of built-in extensions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"naver","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.6,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Whale browser before 3.26.244.21 allows an attacker to execute malicious JavaScript due to improper sanitization when processing a built-in extension.","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 NAVER Whale browser","id":"CVE-2024-40618","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in ControlLogix® 5580","id":"CVE-2024-40619"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in FUJITSU Network Edgiot GW1500 (M2M-GW for FENICS)","id":"CVE-2024-40617"},"products":["NAVER Whale browser"],"published":"2024-07-11","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-02","vendors":["NAVER"]},"summary":"An attacker can execute malicious JavaScript in NAVER Whale browser due to improper sanitization of built-in extensions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40618/"}
