CWE ID 79

Summary

CVE-2024-32463 is a vulnerability in the open source framework called phlex, used for building object-oriented views in Ruby. The vulnerability is a cross-site scripting (XSS) issue that can be exploited through maliciously crafted user data. It allows the bypassing of the filter that detects and prevents the use of the `javascript:` URL scheme in the `href` attribute of an `<a>` tag by using tab `\t` or newline `\n` characters between the characters of the protocol. This vulnerability has been fixed in versions 1.10.1, 1.9.2, 1.8.3, 1.7.2, 1.6.3, 1.5.3, and 1.4.2 of phlex by configuring a Content Security Policy that disallows `unsafe-inline`. The potential danger to organizations is relatively high as it can lead to unauthorized execution of scripts on users' browsers and potentially compromise sensitive information.
