avo vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting (XSS) in key_value field

high severity CVE-2024-22191
high severity CVE-2024-22191
Patched versions: >= 3.2.4, ~> 2.47, >= 2.47

Summary

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was found in the key_value field of Avo v3.2.3. This vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in the victim's browser.

Details

The value of the key_value is inserted directly into the HTML code. In the current version of Avo (possibly also older versions), the value is not properly sanitized before it is inserted into the HTML code.

This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to inject malicious JavaScript code into the key_value field. When a victim views the page containing the malicious code, the code will be executed in their browser.

In avo/fields/common/key_value_component.html.erb the value is taken in lines 38 and 49 and seems to be interpreted directly as html in lines 44 and 55.

Impact

This vulnerability could be used to steal sensitive information from victims that could be used to hijack victims' accounts or redirect them to malicious websites.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) in Action messages on Avo

medium severity CVE-2024-22411
medium severity CVE-2024-22411
Patched versions: >= 3.3.0, ~> 2.47, >= 2.47

Avo is a framework to create admin panels for Ruby on Rails apps. In Avo 3 pre12 any HTML inside text that is passed to error or succeed in an Avo::BaseAction subclass will be rendered directly without sanitization in the toast/notification that appears in the UI on Action completion. A malicious user could exploit this vulnerability to trigger a cross site scripting attack on an unsuspecting user.

This issue has been addressed in the 3.0.2 release of Avo. Users are advised to upgrade.
