How to Fix GHSA-2w8w-qhg4-f78j
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
Upgrade github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger to 1.47.0Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
inspect dependencies for github.com/jaegertracing/jaegerHow to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your application is affected by GHSA-2w8w-qhg4-f78j, inspect your project dependencies for Github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger:
inspect dependencies for github.com/jaegertracing/jaegerAnalyze the terminal output to locate any version of Github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.47.0), your application is affected.
Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.
Technical Details
Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'), where the product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.

"details" : "Related UI vulnerability advisory: https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-ui/security/advisories/GHSA-vv24-rm95-q56r\n\n### Summary\nJaeger UI is using the `json-markup` dependency to display span attributes and resources. This dependency is not sanitising keys of an object though, thus the `KeyValuesTable` is vulnerable to XSS. \n\n### Details\nThe vulnerable line is here: https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-ui/blob/main/packages/jaeger-ui/src/components/TracePage/TraceTimelineViewer/SpanDetail/KeyValuesTable.tsx#L49\n\n### PoC\n\n1. Start a Jaeger UI\n2. Save the following trace as a file:\n```json\n{\n \"data\": [\n {\n \"traceID\": \"076ef819cc06c45a\",\n \"spans\": [\n {\n \"traceID\": \"076ef819cc06c45a\",\n \"spanID\": \"076ef819cc06c45a\",\n \"flags\": 1,\n \"operationName\": \"and open 'attributes'\",\n \"references\": [],\n \"startTime\": 1678196149232010,\n \"duration\": 13485,\n \"tags\": [\n {\n \"key\": \"sampler.type\",\n \"type\": \"string\",\n \"value\": \"{\\\"<img src=x onerror=alert(1)>\\\":\\\"test\\\"}\"\n }\n ],\n \"logs\": [],\n \"processID\": \"p1\",\n \"warnings\": null\n }\n ],\n \"processes\": {\n \"p1\": {\n \"serviceName\": \"click here\",\n \"tags\": [\n ]\n }\n },\n \"warnings\": null\n }\n ],\n \"total\": 0,\n \"limit\": 0,\n \"offset\": 0,\n \"errors\": null\n}\n```\n3. Upload that trace to Jaeger UI in order to visualise it.\n4. Open the trace, open it's span's attributes.\n5. XSS should be fired.\n\n### Impact\n\nThis is a XSS on Jaeger UI. XSS can be used to run JavaScript.\n",
