{"id":"CVE-2016-1000227","aliases":[],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2016-1000227","summary":"Cross-Site Scripting in bootstrap-tagsinput","details":"All versions of `bootstrap-tagsinput` are vulnerable to cross-site scripting when user input is passed into the `itemTitle` parameter unmodified, as the package fails to properly sanitize or encode user input for that parameter.\n\n\n\n## Recommendation\n\nThis package is not actively maintained, and has not seen an update since 2015. \n\nBecause of this, the simplest mitigation is to avoid using the `itemTitle` parameter. With over 200 open issues and over 100 open pull requests as of 2/2018, it seems unlikely that the author has any intention of maintaining the module. If avoiding the use of `itemTitle` indefinitely is acceptable, this is a workable solution. If not, the best available mitigation is to use a fork of the module that is actively maintained and provides similar functionality. There are [many such forks to choose from available on github.](https://github.com/bootstrap-tagsinput/bootstrap-tagsinput/network/members).","published":"2020-09-01T15:29:51Z","modified":"2023-11-08T03:58:07.600553Z","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"bootstrap-tagsinput","fixedVersion":null}],"fix":null,"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2016-1000227"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/bootstrap-tagsinput/bootstrap-tagsinput/issues/501"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/bootstrap-tagsinput"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.npmjs.com/advisories/124"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2023-11-08T03:58:07.600553Z"}}
