An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-9835 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown RSS Feed Widget. 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-2024-9835/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9835/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-9835","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9835/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-9835","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hw6j-ph25-g43c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts in victim browsers via reflected XSS in the RSS Feed Widget plugin, requiring an upgrade to mitigate.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"rss_feed_widget","vendor":"fahadmahmood"}],"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":"The RSS Feed Widget WordPress plugin before 3.0.1 does not escape the $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] parameter before outputting it back in an attribute, which could lead to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in old web browsers","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"RSS Feed Widget \u003c 3.0.1 - Reflected XSS","id":"CVE-2024-9835","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"RSS Feed Widget \u003c 3.0.0 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-9836"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Improper data protection on Life2000 ventilator serial interface","id":"CVE-2024-9834"},"products":["RSS Feed Widget"],"published":"2024-11-12","related":[{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"RSS Feed Widget \u003c= 2.9.9 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via rfw-youtube-videos Shortcode","id":"CVE-2024-10057","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-18"}],"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":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-11-12","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts in victim browsers via reflected XSS in the RSS Feed Widget plugin, requiring an upgrade to mitigate.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9835/"}
