CVE-2024-9283

Local content modification via Pug-to-PDF script injection

Published Sep 27, 2024 · Updated Sep 27, 2024

Cross-site scripting in ReLaXed 0.2.0 through 0.2.2 allows local users to alter generated content through crafted Pug input. The CNA identifies the Pug-to-PDF converter as the affected component but does not disclose the function or exact input-neutralization failure before Chromium renders the intermediate HTML. Exploitation requires low-privilege local access and affects integrity only, with no reported confidentiality or availability impact.
