CVE-2024-45799
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 · uneditedFluxCP is a web-based Control Panel for rAthena servers written in PHP. A javascript injection is possible via venders/buyers list pages and shop names, that are currently not sanitized. This allows executing arbitrary javascript code on the user's browser just by visiting the shop pages. As a result all logged in to fluxcp users can have their session info stolen. This issue has been addressed in release version 1.3. All users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
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 confidenceStored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in FluxCP allows injection of arbitrary JavaScript via unsanitized vendor/buyer list pages and shop names, enabling session theft from all logged-in users.

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 FluxCP installationLocate FluxCP installation directory. Common paths include /var/www/fluxcp, /home/user/public_html/fluxcp, or check web server document root for 'fluxcp' folder. Look for file 'includes/functions.php' or 'config.php' to confirm installation.Affected if FluxCP is present on the server and accessible via web
-
Determine FluxCP versionOpen the FluxCP root directory and check for a VERSION file, or look in config.php for a version constant. Alternatively, check the git tags if using source control: git tag | tail -1Affected if Version is below 1.3.0 (e.g., 1.2.x or unversioned)
-
Verify vendor/buyer list feature is accessibleCheck if the vendor/buyer list module is enabled. Examine config/server.php or config/modules.php for the 'vendor' or 'buyer' module configuration. Try accessing /?module=vendor or /?module=buyer via HTTP to confirm the feature is active.Affected if Vendor/buyer module is enabled and accessible to users
-
Inspect stored shop names for unsanitized inputExamine the database table for shop/vendor entries. Query: SELECT id, shop_name, owner FROM vendors WHERE shop_name LIKE '%<script%' OR shop_name LIKE '%onerror=%' OR shop_name LIKE '%onload=%'. Alternatively, view the vendor list page source in a browser and search for unescaped HTML characters.Affected if Database contains shop names with unescaped HTML/script tags, or rendered page shows raw HTML in shop name fields
User is affected if FluxCP version is below 1.3.0 AND the vendor/buyer list feature is enabled AND unsanitized shop/vendor names are present in the database or rendered.

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 · scoped1.3.0
Upgrade to FluxCP version 1.3 which implements proper input sanitization; no workarounds available.
1.3.0
- Back up your current FluxCP installation and database
- Download FluxCP version 1.3.0 from the official repository (e.g., github.com/rathena/fluxcp)
- Replace existing FluxCP files with the new version 1.3.0
- Verify the application functions correctly after the upgrade
- Confirm the XSS vulnerability is fixed by testing that shop names and vendor/buyer list entries are properly sanitized and no longer execute injected JavaScript
