{"cve":"CVE-2023-30856","nvd":{"published":"2023-04-28T16:15:10.260","modified":"2026-06-17T05:55:47.097","status":"Modified","description":"eDEX-UI is a science fiction terminal emulator. Versions 2.2.8 and prior are vulnerable to cross-site websocket hijacking. When running eDEX-UI and browsing the web, a malicious website can connect to eDEX's internal terminal control websocket, and send arbitrary commands to the shell. The project has been archived since 2021, and as of time of publication there are no plans to patch this issue and release a new version. Some workarounds are available, including shutting down eDEX-UI when browsing the web and ensuring the eDEX terminal runs with lowest possible privileges.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":10.0},"cwes":["CWE-346","CWE-1385"],"references":["https://christian-schneider.net/CrossSiteWebSocketHijacking.html","https://github.com/GitSquared/edex-ui/blob/04a00c4079908788b371c6ecdefff96d0d9950f8/src/classes/terminal.class.js#L458","https://github.com/GitSquared/edex-ui/security/advisories/GHSA-q8xc-f2wf-ffh9","https://christian-schneider.net/CrossSiteWebSocketHijacking.html","https://github.com/GitSquared/edex-ui/blob/04a00c4079908788b371c6ecdefff96d0d9950f8/src/classes/terminal.class.js#L458"],"products":["edex-ui_project:edex-ui"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:38:05.473481323+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2023-30856","score":0.00348,"percentile":0.28456,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
