CVE-2023-4093
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedReflected and persistent XSS vulnerability in Arconte Áurea, in its 1.5.0.0 version. The exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to inject malicious JavaScript code, compromise the victim's browser and take control of it, redirect the user to malicious domains or access information being viewed by the legitimate user.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceCross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Arconte Áurea v1.5.0.0 allowing both reflected (via URL parameters) and persistent (stored in database) injection of malicious JavaScript. The vulnerability enables attackers to execute arbitrary scripts in victim browsers, potentially hijacking sessions, redirecting users to malicious sites, or stealing displayed information.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify Arconte Áurea installationIdentify whether Arconte Áurea (Fujirma) is deployed in your environment. Check application inventories, installed software lists, or consult your system administrator for confirmation.Affected if Arconte Áurea is not installed - not affected. If installed, proceed to version check.
-
Confirm installed version is 1.5.0.0Locate the version information for your Arconte Áurea installation. Check the application about page, version metadata file, or administration panel where version details are displayed. Compare your installed version to the affected version 1.5.0.0.Affected if Your installed version is exactly 1.5.0.0 - proceed to next checks. Versions other than 1.5.0.0 are not affected by this specific CVE.
-
Identify user input fieldsReview your Arconte Áurea application for fields that accept user-supplied data. Common areas include: search parameters, form inputs, comment fields, user profile fields, or any data submitted via HTTP request parameters.Affected if No user input fields exist - not affected. If user input fields exist, the vulnerability may be present.
-
Test for reflected XSS in URL parametersIf your application uses URL parameters to display user input back in responses, test by submitting a benign script tag such as <script>alert(1)</script> in query parameters and check if the script executes in the browser response.Affected if The submitted script executes or appears unescaped in the response - you are affected by reflected XSS.
-
Test for stored XSS in database fieldsIf your application stores user input for later display (in databases, profiles, or content management areas), submit a script tag such as <script>alert(1)</script> into any user-editable field, save the data, and then retrieve or view that stored data to see if the script executes.Affected if The submitted script executes when the stored data is displayed - you are affected by persistent XSS.
You are affected if Arconte Áurea version 1.5.0.0 is installed AND your application contains user input fields where submitted data is either reflected in HTTP responses or stored for later display without proper encoding or sanitization.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement context-aware output encoding and input validation/sanitization on all user-supplied data fields, with particular attention to data that is both reflected in HTTP responses and stored for later retrieval. Apply Content Security Policy headers to mitigate script execution.
