{"id":"GHSA-mrx7-8hxf-f853","summary":"Cross-Site Scripting in swagger-ui","details":"Affected versions of `swagger-ui` are vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability exists because `swagger-ui` automatically executes external Javascript that is loaded in via the `url` query string parameter when a `Content-Type: application/javascript` header is included.\n\nAn attacker can create a server that replies with a malicious script and the proper content-type, and then craft a `swagger-ui` URL that includes the location to their server/script in the `url` query string parameter. When viewed, such a link would execute the attacker's malicious script.\n\n\n## Recommendation\n\nUpdate to 2.2.1 or later.","aliases":["CVE-2016-1000233"],"modified":"2023-11-08T03:58:07.968864Z","published":"2020-09-01T15:36:27Z","database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-79"],"severity":"HIGH","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2020-08-31T18:11:55Z","nvd_published_at":null},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2016-1000233"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui/issues/1863"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui/commit/331d2be070d89162aa3174a8773ae4a0093f78bc"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/advisories/131"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"swagger-ui","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/swagger-ui"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.2.1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2020/09/GHSA-mrx7-8hxf-f853/GHSA-mrx7-8hxf-f853.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
