Summary
Ibexa Admin UI vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting in a field that is used in the Content name pattern
Workarounds
None.
References
Impact
The Content name pattern is used to build Content names from one or more fields. An XSS vulnerability has been found in this mechanism. Content edit permission is required to exploit it. After the fix, any existing injected XSS will not run.
Untrusted input is rendered as active markup in a victim's browser, which can run script in their session. Typical impact: session or credential theft, and actions taken as the user.

Kodem intelligence
Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2024-53864? CVE-2024-53864 is a medium-severity cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in ibexa/admin-ui (composer), affecting versions >= 4.6.0, < 4.6.14. It is fixed in 4.6.14. Untrusted input is rendered as active markup in a victim's browser, which can run script in their session.
- Which versions of ibexa/admin-ui are affected by CVE-2024-53864? ibexa/admin-ui (composer) versions >= 4.6.0, < 4.6.14 is affected.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2024-53864? Yes. CVE-2024-53864 is fixed in 4.6.14. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is CVE-2024-53864 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2024-53864 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

- What actually determines whether CVE-2024-53864 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
- How do I fix CVE-2024-53864? Upgrade
ibexa/admin-uito 4.6.14 or later.
