Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-11-13 03:30 – Updated: 2024-11-13 03:30The WP-Strava plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 2.12.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

GHSA-62R2-GCXR-426X
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-09-30 17:48 – Updated: 2024-09-30 20:11Summary
A user with the editmyprivateinfo right or who can otherwise change their name can XSS themselves by setting their "real name" to an XSS payload.
Details
Here's the offending line: https://github.com/StarCitizenTools/mediawiki-skins-Citizen/blob/d45c3d69f30863f622f16eb40dd41d3ca943454a/includes/Components/CitizenComponentUserInfo.php#L137
This was introduced in 717d16af35b10dab04d434aefddbf991fc8c168c
PoC
- Login
- Go to Special:Preferences
- Set the real name field to a string like
<script>alert("Admin with a propensity for self-XSSes")</script> - Save your settings and use Citizen if it's not being used already
Impact
Any user who can change their name (whether it's through the editmyprivateinfo right or through other means) can add XSS payloads that trigger for themselves only.

GHSA-65CV-R6X7-79HV
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2020-03-19 17:30 – Updated: 2023-02-03 20:47There is a possible cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in ActionView's JavaScript literal escape helpers. Views that use the j or escape_javascript methods may be susceptible to XSS attacks.
Impact
There is a possible XSS vulnerability in the j and escape_javascript methods in ActionView. These methods are used for escaping JavaScript string literals. Impacted code will look something like this:
<script>let a = `<%= j unknown_input %>`</script>
or
<script>let a = `<%= escape_javascript unknown_input %>`</script>
Releases
The 6.0.2.2 and 5.2.4.2 releases are available at the normal locations.
Workarounds
For those that can't upgrade, the following monkey patch may be used:
ActionView::Helpers::JavaScriptHelper::JS_ESCAPE_MAP.merge!(
{
"`" => "\\`",
"$" => "\\$"
}
)
module ActionView::Helpers::JavaScriptHelper
alias :old_ej :escape_javascript
alias :old_j :j
def escape_javascript(javascript)
javascript = javascript.to_s
if javascript.empty?
result = ""
else
result = javascript.gsub(/(\\|<\/|\r\n|\342\200\250|\342\200\251|[\n\r"']|[`]|[$])/u, JS_ESCAPE_MAP)
end
javascript.html_safe? ? result.html_safe : result
end
alias :j :escape_javascript
end
Patches
To aid users who aren't able to upgrade immediately we have provided patches for the two supported release series. They are in git-am format and consist of a single changeset.
- 5-2-js-helper-xss.patch - Patch for 5.2 series
- 6-0-js-helper-xss.patch - Patch for 6.0 series
Please note that only the 5.2 and 6.0 series are supported at present. Users of earlier unsupported releases are advised to upgrade as soon as possible as we cannot guarantee the continued availability of security fixes for unsupported releases.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-04-11 06:30 – Updated: 2024-04-04 03:23The SAP Application Interface (Message Dashboard) - versions AIF 703, AIFX 702, S4CORE 100, 101, SAP_BASIS 755, 756, SAP_ABA 75C, 75D, 75E, application allows the usage HTML tags. An authorized attacker can use some of the basic HTML codes such as heading, basic formatting and lists, then an attacker can inject images from the foreign domains. After successful exploitations, an attacker can cause limited impact on the confidentiality and integrity of the application.

Mitigation
Carefully check each input parameter against a rigorous positive specification (allowlist) defining the specific characters and format allowed. All input should be neutralized, not just parameters that the user is supposed to specify, but all data in the request, including hidden fields, cookies, headers, the URL itself, and so forth. A common mistake that leads to continuing XSS vulnerabilities is to validate only fields that are expected to be redisplayed by the site. We often encounter data from the request that is reflected by the application server or the application that the development team did not anticipate. Also, a field that is not currently reflected may be used by a future developer. Therefore, validating ALL parts of the HTTP request is recommended.
Mitigation MIT-30.1
Strategy: Output Encoding
- Use and specify an output encoding that can be handled by the downstream component that is reading the output. Common encodings include ISO-8859-1, UTF-7, and UTF-8. When an encoding is not specified, a downstream component may choose a different encoding, either by assuming a default encoding or automatically inferring which encoding is being used, which can be erroneous. When the encodings are inconsistent, the downstream component might treat some character or byte sequences as special, even if they are not special in the original encoding. Attackers might then be able to exploit this discrepancy and conduct injection attacks; they even might be able to bypass protection mechanisms that assume the original encoding is also being used by the downstream component.
- The problem of inconsistent output encodings often arises in web pages. If an encoding is not specified in an HTTP header, web browsers often guess about which encoding is being used. This can open up the browser to subtle XSS attacks.
Mitigation MIT-43
With Struts, write all data from form beans with the bean's filter attribute set to true.
Mitigation MIT-31
Strategy: Attack Surface Reduction
To help mitigate XSS attacks against the user's session cookie, set the session cookie to be HttpOnly. In browsers that support the HttpOnly feature (such as more recent versions of Internet Explorer and Firefox), this attribute can prevent the user's session cookie from being accessible to malicious client-side scripts that use document.cookie. This is not a complete solution, since HttpOnly is not supported by all browsers. More importantly, XmlHttpRequest and other powerful browser technologies provide read access to HTTP headers, including the Set-Cookie header in which the HttpOnly flag is set.
CAPEC-18: XSS Targeting Non-Script Elements
This attack is a form of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) where malicious scripts are embedded in elements that are not expected to host scripts such as image tags (<img>), comments in XML documents (< !-CDATA->), etc. These tags may not be subject to the same input validation, output validation, and other content filtering and checking routines, so this can create an opportunity for an adversary to tunnel through the application's elements and launch a XSS attack through other elements. As with all remote attacks, it is important to differentiate the ability to launch an attack (such as probing an internal network for unpatched servers) and the ability of the remote adversary to collect and interpret the output of said attack.
CAPEC-193: PHP Remote File Inclusion
In this pattern the adversary is able to load and execute arbitrary code remotely available from the application. This is usually accomplished through an insecurely configured PHP runtime environment and an improperly sanitized "include" or "require" call, which the user can then control to point to any web-accessible file. This allows adversaries to hijack the targeted application and force it to execute their own instructions.
CAPEC-32: XSS Through HTTP Query Strings
An adversary embeds malicious script code in the parameters of an HTTP query string and convinces a victim to submit the HTTP request that contains the query string to a vulnerable web application. The web application then procedes to use the values parameters without properly validation them first and generates the HTML code that will be executed by the victim's browser.
CAPEC-86: XSS Through HTTP Headers
An adversary exploits web applications that generate web content, such as links in a HTML page, based on unvalidated or improperly validated data submitted by other actors. XSS in HTTP Headers attacks target the HTTP headers which are hidden from most users and may not be validated by web applications.
