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-2024-45478 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.apache.ranger:ranger (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.0\n- org.apache.ranger:ranger (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.0\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-2024-45478/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-45478/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-45478","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-45478/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-45478","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vrx2-mgr9-v67h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Ranger UI","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts into the Apache Ranger UI, potentially leading to session hijacking or unauthorized actions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"ranger","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/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":"Stored XSS vulnerability in Edit Service Page of Apache Ranger UI in Apache Ranger Version 2.4.0.\nUsers are recommended to upgrade to version Apache Ranger 2.5.0, which fixes this issue.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"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":"Apache Ranger: Stored XSS in Edit Service page - Add logic to validate user input","id":"CVE-2024-45478","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2024"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Apache Ranger: SSRF in Edit Service page - Add logic to filter requests to localhost","id":"CVE-2024-45479"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.5.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.ranger:ranger","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-vrx2-mgr9-v67h"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.5.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.ranger:ranger","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.ranger/ranger","source":"GHSA-vrx2-mgr9-v67h"}],"prev":{"headline":"Apache NiFi: Improper Neutralization of Input in Parameter Description","id":"CVE-2024-45477"},"products":["Apache Ranger"],"published":"2025-01-21","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: OS Command Injection via Username in UnixUserGroupBuilder","id":"CVE-2026-28672","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: SQL Injection vulnerability in lookup functionality","id":"CVE-2026-32227","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Privilege Escalation via URL Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-40920","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Remote Code Execution via JDBC URL Injection","id":"CVE-2026-42537","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Remote Code Execution via Arbitrary Class Instantiation","id":"CVE-2026-44416","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in GraalScriptEngineCreator","id":"CVE-2026-55799","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in NashornScriptEngineCreator","id":"CVE-2025-59059","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-03"}],"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":"2025-06-10","vendors":["Apache Software Foundation"]},"summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts into the Apache Ranger UI, potentially leading to session hijacking or unauthorized actions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-45478/"}
