Java vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

A Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been identified in JFinalcms version 5.0.0, tracked as CVE-2024-22496. The vulnerability was discovered and reported on January 11, 2024, and allows attackers to execute arbitrary code through the username parameter in the /admin/login endpoint (MITRE, NVD).

Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as a Cross-site Scripting (CWE-79) issue with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.1 (MEDIUM), and vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N. The vulnerability exists due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation, specifically in the handling of the username parameter at the /admin/login endpoint. The syntax #(username) in the application allows for variable reservation in forms, which can be exploited when user input is not properly sanitized (NVD, GitHub POC).

Impact

When successfully exploited, this vulnerability allows attackers to inject and execute arbitrary web script code in the context of the user's browser session. This can lead to theft of sensitive information, including cookies and session tokens, potentially compromising user accounts (NVD).
