Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in Stimulsoft GmbH Stimulsoft Dashboard.JS before v.2024.1.2 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via a crafted payload to the search bar component.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2024-24396 is a cross-site scripting issue in Stimulsoft Dashboard.JS before v2024.1.2. A remote attacker could use a crafted search-bar input to run browser-side code when a user interacts with it. Business impact is mainly user/session data exposure or page manipulation, not direct server takeover based on the provided CVSS data.
Executive priority
Treat as a timely web-application remediation item, not an emergency unless the component is internet-facing or used by privileged users. Prioritize discovery and upgrade planning for exposed dashboards because XSS can support account abuse and data access through a victim’s browser.
Technical view
The CVE describes XSS in the Dashboard.JS search bar component, with CVSS 3.1 score 6.1: network attack, low complexity, no privileges, user interaction required, changed scope, low confidentiality and integrity impact, no availability impact. The record lists CWE-94, though the description and vector align with client-side script execution.
Likely exposure
Organizations using Stimulsoft Dashboard.JS versions before 2024.1.2 may be exposed, especially where the dashboard search bar is reachable by external or untrusted users. The provided affected product table is incomplete, so confirm product and version directly in asset inventory and vendor materials.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not show CISA KEV listing or cited evidence of active exploitation. Exploitation requires user interaction and a crafted payload reaching the search bar component. Successful exploitation could affect the victim’s browser context, including page content and accessible session data.
Researcher notes
Evidence is limited to the CVE description and linked references. The affected table in the CVE data is not populated, while the description names Stimulsoft Dashboard.JS before v2024.1.2. No exploit maturity or active exploitation evidence is provided in the bundle.
Mitigation direction
Identify applications using Stimulsoft Dashboard.JS.
Confirm whether deployed versions are before v2024.1.2.
Upgrade to v2024.1.2 or later if supported by vendor guidance.
Restrict untrusted access to affected dashboard pages where practical.
Monitor vendor advisories for definitive remediation details.
Validation and detection
Inventory Dashboard.JS package versions in deployed applications.
Confirm whether the search bar component is enabled and reachable.
Review vendor release notes for CVE-2024-24396 remediation status.
Check web logs for unusual search-bar input patterns.
Verify input encoding and output sanitization around search results.

CWE-94: Code execution behavior lookup
Code execution and unsafe deserialization weaknesses often justify reviewing execution behavior and process telemetry. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
The CVE wording references code or command execution, so execution technique review may help defensive triage. This is a Glexia inferred lookup path, not an official MITRE, ATT&CK, or CVE Program mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.

Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')
Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
