CVE-2024-25801
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 · uneditedSKINsoft S-Museum 7.02.3 allows XSS via the filename of an uploaded file. Unlike in CVE-2024-25802, the attack payload is in the name (not the content) of a file.
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 · high confidenceSKINsoft S-Museum 7.02.3 contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability where malicious JavaScript code can be injected into the filename parameter during file upload. When other users view or access the uploaded file, the unsanitized filename is rendered in the browser, causing the attacker's payload to execute.

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.
-
Confirm S-Museum installation and versionLocate the S-Museum application and identify its version number (typically visible in the application header, about page, or version file in the installation directory)Affected if The installed version is exactly 7.02.3
-
Verify file upload module is accessibleCheck if the file upload functionality is enabled for users in the S-Museum application (typically found in the admin panel or user permissions settings)Affected if Users or attackers can access and use the file upload feature
-
Inspect existing uploaded files for malicious filenamesAccess the file management or media library section of S-Museum and review filenames for patterns like <script>, javascript:, onerror=, or other HTML/JS codeAffected if Any uploaded files contain unsanitized HTML or JavaScript in their filenames that would execute when viewed
-
Review application logs for XSS attempt indicatorsExamine S-Museum application logs and web server access logs for requests to the upload endpoint with suspicious patterns in filename parametersAffected if Recent upload requests contain script tags or XSS payloads in filename fields
You are affected if S-Museum version 7.02.3 is running AND the file upload feature is accessible to users, since the vulnerability allows stored XSS via malicious filenames.

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 strict input validation and output encoding for filename parameters during upload and display, and deploy Content Security Policy headers to mitigate XSS execution.
