CVSS Release: version 2
CVE-2006-3312: Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in ashmans and Bill Echlin QaTraq 6.5 RC and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) link_print, (2) link_upgrade, (3) link_sql, (4) link_next, (5) link_prev, and (6) link_list parameters in top.inc as included by queries_view_search.php; the (7) msg, (8) component_name, and (9) component_desc parameters in (a) components_copy_content.php, (b) components_modify_content.php, and (c) components_new_content.php; the (10) title, (11) version, and (12) content parameters in design_copy_content.php; the (13) plan_title and (14) plan_content parameters in design_copy_plan_search.php; the (15) title, (16) minor_version, (17) new_version, and (18) content parameters in design_modify_content.php; the (19) title, (20) version, and (21) content parameters in design_new_content.php; the (22) plan_name and (23) plan_desc parameters in design_new_search.php; the (24) file_name parameter in download.php; the (25) username and (26) password parameters in login.php; the (27) title, (28) version, and (29) content parameters in phase_copy_content.php; the (30) content parameter in phase_delete_search.php; the (31) title, (32) minor_version, (33) new_version, and (34) content parameters in phase_modify_content.php; the (35) content, (36) title, (37) version, and (38) content parameters in phase_modify_search.php; the (39) content parameter in phase_view_search.php; the (40) msg, (41) product_name, and (42) product_desc parameters in products_copy_content.php; and possibly the (43) product_name and (44) product_desc parameters in (d) products_copy_search.php, and a large number of additional parameters and executables. NOTE: the vendor notified CVE via e-mail that this issue has been fixed in the 6.8 RC release.
The exploitability of CVE-2006-3312 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).
Moderate complexity but no authentication required makes CVE-2006-3312 a potential risk.
A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.
Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.
Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.
Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2006-3312, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2006-3312, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
The EPSS score estimates the probability that this vulnerability will be exploited in the near future.
EPSS Score: 3.265% (probability of exploit)
EPSS Percentile: 91.37%
(lower percentile = lower relative risk)
This vulnerability is less risky than approximately 8.629999999999995% of others.
