Technical details

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the cveInterface.js component of the CERT/CC cveClient library. The root cause is a failure to sanitize or neutralize input received from CVE API services, leading to a 'trusting input' flaw (CWE-79). An attacker who can influence the data returned by a CVE API service can inject malicious HTML or JavaScript that executes in the context of the user's browser session. This is a network-based attack requiring minimal user interaction (viewing the affected data). The issue is resolved in version 1.0.24.
