Summary

CVE-2024-28715 is a high-severity Cross-site Scripting (CWE-79) vulnerability in Html-Js Doracms. Its CVSS base score is 8.8 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Protocol or Service Impersonation (T1001.003); ranked in the top 36% 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.

DOraCMS versions 2.18 and earlier are affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability tracked as CVE-2024-28715. The flaw resides in the markdown0 function at the /app/public/apidoc/oas3/wrap-components/markdown.jsx endpoint and is classified under CWE-79 with a CVSS 3.1 score of 8.8 reflecting network attack vector, low complexity, no required privileges, and required user interaction that produces changed scope.

An unauthenticated remote attacker can supply crafted input to the endpoint that causes arbitrary script execution within a victim's browser session, enabling theft of session data or other actions permitted by the changed scope.

Public references consist of repositories that document the issue and provide reproduction details, but no official advisories or patch information appear among the listed sources.

The associated EPSS score is 0.1273 with no material rise from its initial value after disclosure, while the availability of public proof-of-concept material indicates researcher interest in the flaw.

Adversaries may try to gather information about registered local system services.
T1011 Exfiltration Over Other Network Medium Exfiltration
Adversaries may attempt to exfiltrate data over a different network medium than the command and control channel.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation can discover missing or incorrect input neutralization through targeted web-application tests.

Input validation directly enforces neutralization of untrusted data before it reaches web output generation.

Output filtering can catch or sanitize unneutralized script content before it is served to users.

PR.PS-06 mostly match

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).

PR.PS-02 partial match

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).

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.
