CVE-2024-47878

Reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability (XSS) in GData extension (authorized.vt)

Published Oct 24, 2024 CVSS 3.1 · 8.1 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
OpenRefine is a free, open source tool for working with messy data. Prior to version 3.8.3, the `/extension/gdata/authorized` endpoint includes the `state` GET parameter verbatim in a `<script>` tag in the output, so without escaping. An attacker could lead or redirect a user to a crafted URL containing JavaScript code, which would then cause that code to be executed in the victim's browser as if it was part of OpenRefine. Version 3.8.3 fixes this issue.
