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 GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- discord-markdown (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 2.3.1\n- discord-markdown (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 2.3.1\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/GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch/index.md)","id":"GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch/index.md","name":"GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch","record":{"aliases":[],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Markdown rendering library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can inject malicious HTML into pages using discord-markdown by submitting user-generated markdown without a language identifier.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"### Impact\nAny website using discord-markdown with user-generated markdown is vulnerable to having code injected into the page where the markdown is displayed.\n\n### Patches\nThis has been patched in version 2.3.1\n\n### Workarounds\nEscape the characters `\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u0026amp;` before sending plain code blocks to discord-markdown.\n\n### References\nhttps://github.com/brussell98/discord-markdown/issues/13","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":true,"headline":"discord-html not escaping HTML code blocks when lacking a language identifier","id":"GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"advisory","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2020"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["2.3.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"discord-markdown","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["2.3.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"discord-markdown","purl":"pkg:npm/discord-markdown","source":"GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch"}],"products":null,"published":"2020-02-24","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":"An attacker can inject malicious HTML into pages using discord-markdown by submitting user-generated markdown without a language identifier.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/GHSA-9r27-994c-4xch/"}
