Integrity: Low
Availability: None

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-2024-45967, organizations should first verify if they are running Pagekit version 1.0.18 and restrict access to the admin interface, especially the index.php/admin/site/widget endpoint, to trusted networks and users. Implement strict input validation and output encoding on all user-supplied data in the affected endpoint to prevent script injection. Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to limit the execution of unauthorized scripts in the browser context. Encourage administrators to avoid clicking on untrusted links and to use multi-factor authentication to reduce the impact of session hijacking. Monitor web server logs for suspicious requests targeting the vulnerable endpoint. Stay alert for vendor updates or community patches addressing this vulnerability. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on XSS vulnerabilities in administrative interfaces.

Description

Pagekit 1.0.18 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in index.php/admin/site/widget.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2024-45967 is on the integrity of the affected Pagekit CMS installations. Successful exploitation could allow attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the administrator's browser session, potentially leading to session hijacking, unauthorized changes to site content, or injection of malicious content. While confidentiality and availability are not directly impacted, the integrity compromise can undermine trust in the affected websites and lead to further attacks such as phishing or malware distribution. Organizations relying on Pagekit 1.0.18 for website management may face reputational damage, loss of administrative control, and potential downstream impacts on users. Since the vulnerability requires user interaction, the risk is somewhat mitigated but remains significant in environments where administrators frequently access the vulnerable endpoint. The absence of known exploits in the wild currently reduces immediate risk but does not preclude future exploitation. The vulnerability's medium severity suggests it should be addressed promptly to prevent escalation or chaining with other vulnerabilities.

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.
