Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2023-26159
**DESCRIPTION:**follow-redirects could allow a remote attacker to conduct phishing attacks, caused by an open redirect vulnerability. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a specially crafted URL to redirect a victim to arbitrary Web sites.
CVSS Base score: 6.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/278622 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2024-28849
**DESCRIPTION:**Node.js follow-redirects module could allow a remote authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by the leakage of credentials when clearing authorization header during cross-domain redirect, but keeping the proxy-authentication header. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain credentials and other sensitive information.
CVSS Base score: 6.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/285690 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2022-31259
**DESCRIPTION:**Beego could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a flaw in the route lookup process. By appending .xml in /p1/p2/:name routes, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to access routes that they otherwise cannot access.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/227145 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2008-7220
**DESCRIPTION:**An unspecified error in the Prototype JavaScript framework (prototypejs), as used in multiple products, could allow a remote attacker to conduct cross-site ajax requests using unknown attack vectors. Note: This vulnerability affects the AJAX-based manager interface, ajamdemo.html, in certain versions of Asterisk.
CVSS Base score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/53652 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2023-45285
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw when using go get to fetch a module with the “.git” suffix. By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information from the insecure “git://” protocol, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
CVSS Base score: 7.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/273323 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2020-11022
**DESCRIPTION:**jQuery is vulnerable to cross-site scripting, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input by the jQuery.htmlPrefilter method. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious script into a Web page which would be executed in a victim’s Web browser within the security context of the hosting Web site, once the page is viewed. An attacker could use this vulnerability to steal the victim’s cookie-based authentication credentials.
CVSS Base score: 6.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/181349 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2020-11023
**DESCRIPTION:**jQuery is vulnerable to cross-site scripting, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input by the option elements. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious script into a Web page which would be executed in a victim’s Web browser within the security context of the hosting Web site, once the page is viewed. An attacker could use this vulnerability to steal the victim’s cookie-based authentication credentials.
CVSS Base score: 6.1
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/181350 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N)

CVEID:CVE-2023-39326
**DESCRIPTION:**Golang Go could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw in the net/http package. By sending a specially crafted HTTP request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to read many more bytes from the network than are in the body, and use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
CVSS Base score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/273322 for the current score.
