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: 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 29 Aug 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 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-2024-41371, organizations should first monitor for any official patches or updates from the Organizr development team and apply them promptly once available. In the interim, implement strict input validation and output encoding on all parameters accepted by api.php to prevent injection of malicious scripts. Deploy a robust Content Security Policy (CSP) that restricts the execution of inline scripts and limits sources of executable code. Enable HTTPOnly and Secure flags on session cookies to reduce the risk of theft via XSS. Educate users about the risks of clicking untrusted links and implement web application firewalls (WAF) with rules targeting XSS attack patterns on the api.php endpoint. Regularly audit and review web server logs for suspicious requests or anomalous behavior. Consider isolating the Organizr instance behind VPN or access controls to limit exposure. Finally, conduct security testing and code reviews focused on input handling to prevent similar vulnerabilities in future versions.

Description

Organizr v1.90 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS) via api.php.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2024-41371 is the compromise of user confidentiality and integrity within affected Organizr installations. Attackers can execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of authenticated users, potentially stealing session tokens, credentials, or manipulating displayed data to mislead users. This can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information or further lateral attacks within an organization’s network. While availability is not directly affected, the trustworthiness of the web portal is undermined, which can disrupt operational workflows. Organizations relying on Organizr for managing multiple services may face increased risk of targeted phishing or account takeover attempts. The vulnerability’s requirement for user interaction limits automated exploitation but does not eliminate risk, especially in environments with many users or exposed web interfaces. The absence of known exploits suggests limited current impact but also highlights the need for proactive mitigation before attackers develop weaponized payloads.

Architecture and Design · Libraries or Frameworks
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.
