22
FAUCET Score

CVE-2014-8690 details multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Exponent CMS versions prior to 2.1.4 patch 6, 2.2.3 patch 9, and 2.3.1 patch 4. These flaws allow remote attackers to inject malicious web scripts through various input vectors, including PATH_INFO, the 'src' parameter, and user profile fields. With a CVSS score of 4.3 (medium severity), successful exploitation could lead to client-side script execution, impacting user sessions and data integrity, though it does not directly affect confidentiality or availability. While not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, an exploit is publicly available on ExploitDB, indicating a potential for targeted attacks despite a lack of broader community discussion or media coverage.
