Summary

CVE-2024-23569 is a medium-severity Incomplete Denylist to Cross-Site Scripting (CWE-692) vulnerability in Hcl Software (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 4.3 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Junk Data (T1001.001); ranked at the 21th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and SA-8 (Security and Privacy Engineering Principles) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Input validation requires complete, allowlist-style checks that structurally eliminate reliance on incomplete XSS denylists.

Security engineering principles mandate robust sanitization and validation approaches that avoid incomplete denylist patterns.

PR.PS-06 partial match
blocks

Secure SDLC practices directly require robust input validation and sanitization (e.g., allowlists) rather than incomplete denylists for XSS.

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.

blocks

A.8.25 mandates secure SDLC practices including secure coding guidelines, security requirements, checkpoints, testing (scans/penetration), and developer training that can catch or block many (but not all) incomplete denylist cases before they ship; a minority slice remains where flawed denylists still reach production and can be exploited.

blocks

Application-security requirements can mandate proper output encoding, but the control itself does not prescribe the technique.

prevents

Secure-coding rules directly require allow-list or context-aware escaping instead of incomplete denylists for XSS.

finds

Security testing can discover incomplete denylists, yet the control does not mandate their replacement.
