Use these insights to assess risk and plan your patching strategy.
For a broader perspective on cybersecurity threats, explore the comprehensive list of CVEs by vendor and product. Stay updated on critical vulnerabilities affecting major software and hardware providers.
Total sitecore CVEs: 24
Earliest CVE date: 24 Mar 2009, 14:30 UTC
Latest CVE date: 15 Sep 2024, 22:15 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2024-46938
30-day Count (Rolling): 0
365-day Count (Rolling): 1
Calendar-based Variation
Calendar-based Variation compares a fixed calendar period (e.g., this month versus the same month last year), while Rolling Growth Rate uses a continuous window (e.g., last 30 days versus the previous 30 days) to capture trends independent of calendar boundaries.
Month Variation (Calendar): 0%
Year Variation (Calendar): -87.5%
Month Growth Rate (30-day Rolling): 0.0%
Year Growth Rate (365-day Rolling): -87.5%
Average CVSS: 3.67
Max CVSS: 10.0
Critical CVEs (≥9): 2

These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for sitecore, sorted by severity first and recency.
An issue was discovered in Sitecore Experience Platform (XP), Experience Manager (XM), and Experience Commerce (XC) 8.0 Initial Release through 10.4 Initial Release. An unauthenticated attacker can read arbitrary files.
Multiple Sitecore products allow remote code execution. This affects Experience Manager, Experience Platform, and Experience Commerce through 10.3.
Sitecore Experience Platform (XP) v9.3 was discovered to contain an authenticated remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability via the component /Applications/Content%20Manager/Execute.aspx?cmd=convert&mode=HTML.
Sitecore Experience Platform (XP) v9.3 was discovered to contain an authenticated remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability via the component /sitecore/shell/Invoke.aspx.
An issue in the MVC Device Simulator of Sitecore Experience Platform (XP), Experience Manager (XM), and Experience Commerce (XC) v9.0 Initial Release to v13.0 Initial Release allows attackers to bypass authorization rules.
Deserialization of Untrusted Data in Sitecore Experience Platform through 10.2 allows remote attackers to run arbitrary code via ValidationResult.aspx.
Directory Traversal vulnerability in Sitecore Experience Platform through 10.2 allows remote attackers to download arbitrary files via crafted command to download.aspx
Directory Traversal vulnerability in Site Core Experience Platform 10.2 and earlier allows authenticated remote attackers to download arbitrary files via Urlhandle.
An issue was discovered in Sitecore XP/XM 10.3. As an authenticated Sitecore user, a unrestricted language file upload vulnerability exists the can lead to direct code execution on the content management (CM) server.
Sitecore XP 7.5 Initial Release to Sitecore XP 8.2 Update-7 is vulnerable to an insecure deserialization attack where it is possible to achieve remote command execution on the machine. No authentication or special configuration is required to exploit this vulnerability.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Sitecore CMS 9.0.1 and earlier allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) #300583 - List Manager Dashboard module, (2) #307638 - Campaign Creator module, (3) #316994 - Attributes field, (4) I#316995 - Icon Selection module, (5) #317000 - Latitude field, (6) #317000 - Longitude field, (7) #317017 - UploadPackage2.aspx module, (8) #317072 - Context menu, or (9) I#317073 - Insert from Template dialog.
In Sitecore 9.0 rev 171002, Persistent XSS exists in the Media Library and File Manager. An authenticated unprivileged user can modify the uploaded file extension parameter to inject arbitrary JavaScript.
Sitecore Experience Platform (XP) prior to 9.1.1 is vulnerable to remote code execution via deserialization, aka TFS # 293863. An authenticated user with necessary permissions is able to remotely execute OS commands by sending a crafted serialized object.
Deserialization of Untrusted Data in the anti CSRF module in Sitecore through 9.1 allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code by sending a serialized .NET object in an HTTP POST parameter.
Deserialization of Untrusted Data in the Sitecore.Security.AntiCSRF (aka anti CSRF) module in Sitecore CMS 7.0 to 7.2 and Sitecore XP 7.5 to 8.2 allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code by sending a serialized .NET object in the HTTP POST parameter __CSRFTOKEN.
The Sitecore Rocks plugin before 2.1.149 for Sitecore allows an unauthenticated threat actor to inject malicious commands and code via the Sitecore Rocks Hard Rocks Service.
An issue was discovered in Sitecore Sitecore.NET 8.1 rev. 151207 Hotfix 141178-1 and above. The 'Log Viewer' application is vulnerable to a directory traversal attack, allowing an attacker to access arbitrary files from the host Operating System using a sitecore/shell/default.aspx?xmlcontrol=LogViewerDetails&file= URI. Validation is performed to ensure that the text passed to the 'file' parameter correlates to the correct log file directory. This filter can be bypassed by including a valid log filename and then appending a traditional 'dot dot' style attack.
In Sitecore 8.2, there is absolute path traversal via the shell/Applications/Layouts/IDE.aspx fi parameter and the admin/LinqScratchPad.aspx Reference parameter.
In Sitecore 8.2, there is reflected XSS in the shell/Applications/Tools/Run Program parameter.
Sitecore.NET 7.1 through 7.2 has a Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability via the searchStr parameter to the /Search-Results URI.
Sitecore CRM 8.1 Rev 151207 allows remote authenticated administrators to read arbitrary files via an absolute path traversal attack on sitecore/shell/download.aspx with the file parameter.
The package manager in Sitecore CRM 8.1 Rev 151207 allows remote authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary ASP code by creating a ZIP archive in which a .asp file has a ..\ in its pathname, visiting sitecore/shell/applications/install/dialogs/Upload%20Package/UploadPackage2.aspx to upload this archive and extract its contents, and visiting a URI under sitecore/ to execute the .asp file.
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in "/sitecore/client/Applications/List Manager/Taskpages/Contact list" in Sitecore Experience Platform 8.1 rev. 160519 (8.1 Update-3) allows remote attacks via the Name or Description parameter. This is fixed in 8.2 Update-2.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Sitecore CMS before 7.0 Update-4 (rev. 140120) allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the xmlcontrol parameter to the default URI. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in login/default.aspx in Sitecore CMS before 6.0.2 Update-1 090507 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the sc_error parameter.
Unspecified vulnerability in the web service in Sitecore CMS 5.3.1 rev. 071114 allows remote authenticated users to gain access to security databases, and obtain administrative and user credentials, via unknown vectors related to SOAP and XML requests.
