CVE-2024-30115
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 · uneditedInsufficient sanitization policy in HCL Leap allows client-side script injection in the deployed application through the HTML widget.
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 confidenceThis is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in HCL Leap's HTML widget where insufficient input sanitization allows authenticated attackers to inject malicious client-side scripts (JavaScript) that execute in the browsers of users viewing the deployed application.

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.
-
Identify HCL Leap installation and versionLocate the HCL Leap (Domino Leap) installation directory and check the version manifest or about page. Common paths include the Domino data directory or the Leap installation folder. Look for version files like 'leap-version.properties' or check the application's About/Version information in the HCL Leap interface.Affected if Installed version is 1.1.x and less than 1.1.4 (i.e., 1.1.0 through 1.1.3)
-
Verify HTML widget is in useReview deployed HCL Leap applications (forms) to identify whether the HTML widget component is present. Access the Leap application designer and examine forms for HTML widget instances, or query the application metadata/database for 'HTML' widget references.Affected if Any production application uses the HTML widget to render user-supplied or dynamic HTML content
-
Inspect HTML widget content sourcesExamine the HTML widget configuration in affected applications to determine whether the HTML content source is set to accept user input, external data, or unsanitized values. Check the widget properties panel in the Leap application designer.Affected if HTML widget source is connected to user-provided fields, formula evaluations, or external data sources without sanitization
-
Review deployed application accessibilityDetermine whether the applications containing HTML widgets are accessible to authenticated users beyond the application administrators. Check application security settings and user roles in the Leap administration console.Affected if Non-administrator authenticated users can access applications with HTML widgets
Environment is affected if running Domino Leap version 1.1.0 through 1.1.3 AND any application uses the HTML widget with content that could be influenced by authenticated users.

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.
dbcve · scoped1.1.4
Restrict or disable the HTML widget in untrusted applications, implement strict Content Security Policy (CSP) headers, and validate/sanitize all user-supplied HTML content before rendering.
HCL Domino Leap 1.1.4
- Back up the current HCL Domino Leap installation and all custom applications
- Download HCL Domino Leap version 1.1.4 from the official HCL support portal (support.hcl-software.com)
- Follow HCL's official upgrade documentation to install version 1.1.4
- After upgrade, verify the version is correctly displayed as 1.1.4 in the Domino Leap administration interface
- Test applications that use the HTML widget to confirm the XSS vulnerability is remediated
