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
Newforma Info Exchange (NIX) provides a 'Send a File Transfer' feature that allows a remote, authenticated attacker to upload SVG files that contain JavaScript or other content that may be executed or rendered by a web browser using a mobile user agent.

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

Newforma Info Exchange (NIX) contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in its 'Send a File Transfer' feature. Authenticated remote attackers can upload SVG files containing embedded JavaScript that executes when viewed in mobile web browsers, allowing theft of session tokens or other client-side attacks.

MitigationImplement server-side validation to strip or block JavaScript content from SVG files during upload, or disable SVG file uploads entirely. Apply strict Content-Security-Policy headers to mitigate script execution.

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 Newforma Project Center installation
    Locate the Newforma Project Center application on the system and determine its installation directory. Check for executable files, services, or installed programs named 'Newforma Project Center' or similar.
    Affected if Newforma Project Center is installed on the system
  2. Determine installed version
    Right-click on the Newforma Project Center executable or access the application's About/Help section to view the version number. Alternatively, check the Windows Programs and Features list, the application manifest, or any version file in the installation directory.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 2024.1 (e.g., 2023.x, earlier versions)
  3. Verify Send a File Transfer feature exists
    Log into the Newforma Project Center application as an authenticated user. Navigate through the interface to locate the 'Send a File Transfer' feature, typically found in the file sharing or communication modules.
    Affected if The 'Send a File Transfer' feature is present and accessible to authenticated users
  4. Check if SVG uploads are permitted
    Within the Send a File Transfer feature, attempt to attach or upload an SVG file. Observe whether the application accepts SVG file extensions or check the application's upload configuration/settings for allowed file types.
    Affected if SVG file uploads are accepted by the application without server-side validation blocking them

The environment is affected if Newforma Project Center is installed with a version lower than 2024.1 and the Send a File Transfer feature allows authenticated users to upload SVG files.

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 · scoped
Upgrade available Upgrade to 2024.1 or later
Fixed in 2024.1
Interim mitigation

Implement server-side validation to strip or block JavaScript content from SVG files during upload, or disable SVG file uploads entirely. Apply strict Content-Security-Policy headers to mitigate script execution.

Recommended fix High confidence

2024.1 or later

  1. Upgrade Project Center to version 2024.1 or later to remediate the SVG XSS vulnerability
  2. After upgrading, verify that SVG file upload functionality still works correctly for legitimate use cases
  3. Test with a mobile user agent to confirm that SVG files are now properly sanitized and do not execute embedded JavaScript
