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: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: Required: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a user to take some action before the vulnerability can be exploited.
Scope: Changed: An exploited vulnerability can affect resources beyond the security scope managed by the security authority of the vulnerable component. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are different and managed by different security authorities.
Confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within 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.

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 26 Oct 2026.

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 or the CVSS exploit maturity 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-2024-30883, organizations should implement strict input validation and output encoding on the aspectRatio parameter within the image cropping functionality. Employing a whitelist approach for acceptable parameter values can prevent injection of malicious scripts. Utilizing security headers such as Content Security Policy (CSP) can help restrict the execution of unauthorized scripts. Regularly updating RageFrame2 to the latest version once a patch is released is critical. In the absence of an official patch, consider applying web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block suspicious payloads targeting the aspectRatio parameter. Educate users about the risks of clicking unknown or suspicious links to reduce the likelihood of successful exploitation. Conduct security testing and code reviews focusing on input handling in web components to identify and remediate similar vulnerabilities proactively.

Description

Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in RageFrame2 v2.6.43, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML and obtain sensitive information via a crafted payload injected into the aspectRatio parameter in the image cropping function.

Impact

The primary impact of this vulnerability is on the integrity of user sessions and the security of client-side interactions. Attackers can exploit the reflected XSS to execute arbitrary scripts, potentially stealing session cookies, performing actions on behalf of the user, or redirecting users to malicious websites. This can lead to phishing attacks, unauthorized actions, or reputational damage for organizations using RageFrame2. Although the vulnerability does not directly compromise server confidentiality or availability, successful exploitation can facilitate further attacks or data leakage through client-side compromise. Organizations relying on RageFrame2 for web applications, especially those handling sensitive user data or authentication, face increased risk of targeted attacks leveraging this flaw. The requirement for user interaction limits automated exploitation but does not eliminate risk, particularly in phishing-prone environments.

Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
Implementation · Architecture and Design
Understand the context in which your data will be used and the encoding that will be expected. This is especially important when transmitting data between different components, or when generating outputs that can contain multiple encodings at the same time, such as web pages or multi-part mail messages.
