This low-severity CVE scores 3.7 under the CNA's CVSS (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit-prediction score not yet available (the EPSS model rescores nightly; freshly-published CVEs typically appear within 48 hours). GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

LF Edge eKuiper: Self-XSS in External Service Creation

Summary

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in external service creation allows an authenticated attacker to inject HTML/script payloads into external service names, which may execute in a user's browser when rendered by administrative web interfaces.

Details

Prior to v2.4.0, external service registration endpoints did not strictly enforce alphanumeric character restrictions on service names. An operator or attacker with API access could register a service using a crafted name containing HTML elements (such as `). If an administrative web UI rendered the unescaped service name, arbitrary script execution could occur in the context of the user's browser session.

PoC

  • Create an external service JSON definition with a filename containing an XSS payload, e.g. .json inside a ZIP archive.
  • In external service creation, upload the ZIP and provide the matching service name: .
  • Upon service registration, the unescaped name executes when rendered in the UI context.

Impact

Self-XSS / Stored XSS leading to potential session token leakage or unauthorized actions in the context of the affected user's browser session.

Remediation & Patches

  • Upgrade to eKuiper >= 2.4.0: Strict alphanumeric identifier validation (validate.ValidateID) is now enforced on all external service creation and update endpoints, rejecting invalid characters.

Workarounds

  • Protect eKuiper management endpoints (POST /services`) with authentication and network-level firewalls.

A fix is available. Apply it within your standard update timelines at low or medium mission impact and sooner than that at high.

Exploitation none (no KEV listing, exploit record or EPSS ≥ 50%) · Automatable unknown (not published for this CVE) · Technical impact partial (CVSS below 9.0). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
