Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide basic user capabilities that could normally affect only settings and files owned by a user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges may have the ability to cause an impact only to non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the impacted component.
Integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact on the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 22 Feb 2024
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation

No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-25.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2024-25873, organizations should first verify if they are running Enhavo version 0.13.1 or earlier and monitor for official patches or updates from the Enhavo development team. In the absence of an official patch, implement strict input validation and sanitization on the Author text field within the Blockquote module to neutralize any HTML or script tags. Employ output encoding techniques to ensure that any user-supplied content is rendered as plain text rather than executable code. Restrict user privileges to the minimum necessary, especially limiting who can input data into vulnerable fields. Conduct regular security audits and code reviews focusing on user input handling. Additionally, implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to reduce the impact of injected scripts. Monitoring web application logs for unusual activity related to the Blockquote module can help detect attempted exploitation. Finally, educate developers and administrators about secure coding practices to prevent similar vulnerabilities.

Description

Enhavo v0.13.1 was discovered to contain an HTML injection vulnerability in the Author text field under the Blockquote module. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted payload.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2024-25873 is on the confidentiality and integrity of data within the Enhavo CMS environment. An attacker exploiting this vulnerability could inject malicious HTML or scripts, potentially leading to unauthorized data disclosure, session hijacking, or defacement of web content. Since the vulnerability requires low privileges, it could be exploited by authenticated users with limited access, increasing the risk of insider threats or compromised accounts being leveraged. There is no direct impact on system availability, but the injected code could be used to facilitate further attacks or pivot to other vulnerabilities. Organizations relying on Enhavo for content management, especially those hosting sensitive or customer-facing data, could face reputational damage, data breaches, or compliance violations if exploited. The absence of known exploits in the wild currently reduces immediate risk but does not eliminate the potential for future attacks.

CWE-80Improper Neutralization of Script-Related HTML Tags in a Web Page (Basic XSS) (opens in a new tab)
Variant weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighOWASP Top 10 A05:2025: Injection (opens in a new tab)
The product receives input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special characters such as "<", ">", and "&" that could be interpreted as web-scripting elements when they are sent to a downstream component that processes web pages.
Implementation
Carefully check each input parameter against a rigorous positive specification (allowlist) defining the specific characters and format allowed. All input should be neutralized, not just parameters that the user is supposed to specify, but all data in the request, including hidden fields, cookies, headers, the URL…
Implementation · Output Encoding
Use and specify an output encoding that can be handled by the downstream component that is reading the output. Common encodings include ISO-8859-1, UTF-7, and UTF-8.
Implementation
With Struts, write all data from form beans with the bean's filter attribute set to true.
