CVE-2024-9440 · GHSA-qvqv-mcxr-x8qw
- Affected
- npm slim-select >= 2.0.0, < 2.9.2
- Fixed in
- 2.9.2· Vendor fix available
- Issue
- Slim Select 2.0 versions through 2.9.0 are affected by a potential cross-site scripting vulnerability. In select.ts:createOption(), the text variable from the user-provided Options object is assigned to an innerHTML without sanitation. Software that depends on this library to dynamically generate lists using unsanitized user-provided input may be vulnerable to cross-site scripting, resulting in attacker executed JavaScript. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.9.2.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 2.9.2 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
