Impact

A flaw in rymcu forest, affecting all releases up to version 0.0.5, allows an attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript into the UserInfoController updateUserInfo endpoint. The vulnerability is a classic reflected cross‑site scripting error coupled with a potential code execution weakness (CWE‑79 and CWE‑94). When exploited, malicious scripts are executed in the victim’s browser context, enabling session hijacking, credential theft, data modification, or defacement of the web interface.

Affected Systems

The impacted product is rymcu forest. Versions through 0.0.5 are vulnerable, and no later releases have been listed as fixed. The vendor has not released a public patch or advisory, and the product’s vendor name is not widely recognized in major security feeds.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.1 indicates a moderate level of severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% signals a very low probability of exploitation in the wild. The vulnerability is not included in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting it has not yet been exploited at scale. The attack vector is remote access via the web API; an attacker can craft a malicious payload and send it to the updateUserInfo endpoint, triggering script execution in any client that loads the reflected content.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade rymcu forest to a version that contains the fix for the UserInfoController XSS vulnerability or apply the vendor’s patch if one is released.
  • Implement rigorous input validation and output encoding on all user profile fields so that any injected script is properly escaped before rendering.
  • Configure a strict Content Security Policy that disallows inline scripts and only permits resources from trusted origins, providing a safety net against accidental XSS execution.
