Summary
CVE-2024-1247 is a low-severity Improper Input Validation (CWE-20) vulnerability in Concretecms Concrete Cms. Its CVSS base score is 2.0 (Low).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Protocol or Service Impersonation (T1001.003); ranked in the top 31% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.
Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
Concrete CMS version 9 before 9.2.5 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Role Name field. The flaw stems from insufficient validation of data supplied by administrators when creating or editing roles, allowing HTML or script content to be persisted and later rendered for other users. Versions prior to 9 are unaffected because they lack the group types feature that introduced the vulnerable field.
A rogue administrator account can supply malicious markup in the Role Name field. When another user later views pages that display role information, the injected code may execute in that user's browser context, although the CVSS vector limits impact to low-integrity effects under high attack complexity and multiple preconditions.
The Concrete CMS security advisory and 9.2.5 release notes direct administrators to upgrade immediately to version 9.2.5 or later, which contains the fix for the input-handling issue. The project also published the advisory on 4 February 2024 alongside the corresponding version-history documentation.
EPSS scores for the CVE have remained low, with a current value of 0.0819 after a modest peak of 0.1018.

Vulnerability Data
Concrete CMS version 9 before 9.2.5 is vulnerable to stored XSS via the Role Name field since there is insufficient validation of administrator provided data for that field. A rogue administrator could inject malicious code into the Role Name field…

which might be executed when users visit the affected page. The Concrete CMS Security team scored this 2 with CVSS v3 vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln-metrics/cvss/v3-calculator . Concrete versions below 9 do not include group types so they are not affected by this vulnerability.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation can discover missing input validation through analysis or test cases.
SI-10 directly requires validity checks on information inputs, structurally preventing improper or missing validation.
Output filtering can catch or sanitize unneutralized script content before it is served to users.
Requiring documented development standards and tools can embed input-validation practices into the engineering process.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices directly target introduction of XSS via coding standards/testing (mostly), yet the single broad outcome leaves many specific neutralization vectors unaddressed (partial).
Patching and EOL replacement can remediate known XSS instances in libraries or frameworks (partial) but do nothing to enforce input neutralization in application code (none).
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
A.5.6 only promotes membership in groups to improve knowledge, receive alerts, and share information; it performs no action that stops XSS exploitation (or even the underlying neutralization defect) and is a pure dependency for other controls per the owner's labeling rule.
Hardening callouts derived
DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.
- No fine-grained STIG row for CWE-20, a class-level weakness, and none of its children carries one either.
