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-2024-45400 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: mlewand ckeditor-plugin-openlink. 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-2024-45400/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-45400/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-45400","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-45400/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-45400","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qj47-6x6q-m3c9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"CKEditor plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript code by abusing the link href attribute in the CKEditor Open Link plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"open_link","vendor":"mlewand"}],"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-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"ckeditor-plugin-openlink is a plugin for the CKEditor JavaScript text editor that extends the context menu with a possibility to open a link in a new tab.
