Summary

Concrete CMS versions 9.0.0 to 9.3.3 and below 8.5.19 are vulnerable to Stored XSS in Image Editor Background Color.  A rogue admin could add malicious code to the Thumbnails/Add-Type. The Concrete CMS Security Team gave this a CVSS v4 score of 5.1 with vector https://www.first.org/cvss/calculator/4.0#CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks,  Alexey Solovyev for reporting. (CNA updated this risk rank on 17 Jan 2025 by lowering the AC based on CVSS 4.0 documentation that access privileges should not be considered for AC).

Fencer Vulns keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
