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 Scripting vulnerability in xxl-job-admin v.3.0.0 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTTP GET request containing a malicious script

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

Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in xxl-job-admin v3.0.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious script payloads via crafted HTTP GET request parameters, potentially executing arbitrary JavaScript in victim browsers.

MitigationImplement strict input validation and context-appropriate output encoding on all user-supplied parameters in HTTP requests; audit and patch all vulnerable endpoints.

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. Locate xxl-job-admin installation
    Search for xxl-job-admin web application files, WAR archives, or Docker containers in your environment. Check common deployment directories such as /opt, /var/lib, or application folders. Look for files named 'xxl-job-admin' or 'xxl-job' in your infrastructure.
    Affected if xxl-job-admin is present in the environment
  2. Identify installed version
    Check the version information in the deployed application. This is typically found in the pom.xml file if built from source, a version manifest, or the application startup logs. Look for version markers indicating 3.0.0.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 3.0.0
  3. Verify web interface exposure
    Confirm that the xxl-job-admin web interface is network-accessible. Check your firewall rules, reverse proxy configurations, or service bindings to determine if HTTP/HTTPS endpoints are exposed to users or networks where attackers could send crafted requests.
    Affected if The admin interface is externally accessible without proper network segmentation
  4. Test for parameter reflection
    Send a test HTTP GET request to the xxl-job-admin endpoints with a benign script payload in query parameters (for example, ?callback=<script>alert(1)</script>). Capture the response and examine if the parameter value is reflected unchanged in the HTML output.
    Affected if User-supplied parameters are reflected in responses without encoding or validation

You are affected if xxl-job-admin version 3.0.0 is running and its web interface is accessible to send HTTP GET requests with unsanitized parameters.

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.
