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 · unedited
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Hints Naver Blog naver-blog-api allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Naver Blog: from n/a through <= 1.0.

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 confidence

CSRF vulnerability in the naver-blog-api allows attackers to craft malicious requests that trick authenticated users into submitting unintended actions, leading to persistent XSS injection in Naver Blog.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens for all state-changing operations and validate Origin/Referer headers to prevent cross-site request forgery attacks.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify naver-blog-api presence
    Search for files, modules, or services named 'naver-blog-api' in your environment using file system searches (find / -name '*naver*blog*api*') or package managers (npm list, pip list, gem list depending on language)
    Affected if The naver-blog-api component is installed in your environment
  2. Locate state-changing API endpoints
    Review the API source code or documentation to identify endpoints that perform state-changing operations (POST, PUT, DELETE methods) such as creating/updating/deleting blog posts, comments, or user settings
    Affected if The API has endpoints that modify data (create, update, delete operations)
  3. Inspect for anti-CSRF token implementation
    Examine the source code of state-changing endpoints to check if they implement anti-CSRF tokens. Look for token generation, validation logic, or middleware that verifies tokens on each request. Search for patterns like 'csrf', 'token', 'xsrf' in the codebase
    Affected if State-changing endpoints lack anti-CSRF token validation or use predictable/weak token mechanisms
  4. Check Origin/Referer header validation
    Review the API's request validation logic to determine if it validates the Origin or Referer headers to ensure requests originate from trusted sources. Look for header checks in middleware or request handlers
    Affected if The API does not validate Origin/Referer headers on state-changing requests
  5. Verify XSS sanitization on persisted data
    Examine how user input is handled when stored in the blog system. Check if input is sanitized/escaped before storage and when rendered. Look for XSS filter implementations or Content Security Policy headers
    Affected if User-supplied data is stored without proper sanitization, making XSS injection possible via CSRF-forged requests

You are affected if naver-blog-api is present and state-changing operations lack anti-CSRF token validation and Origin/Referer header checks, allowing attackers to inject persistent XSS through authenticated users.
