CVE-2024-52583: WesHacks code includes links to Leostop tracking spyware infested files
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 32/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.21% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- No fixed version is recorded, but the references include a patch (commit or PR) link.
Low priority for now. See the fix and affected versions sections below.

The WesHacks GitHub repository provides the official Hackathon competition website source code for the Muweilah Wesgreen Hackathon. The page `schedule.html` before 17 November 2024 or commit 93dfb83 contains links to `Leostop`, a site that hosts a malicious injected JavaScript file that occurs when bootstrap is run as well as jquery. `Leostop` may be a tracking malware and creates 2 JavaScript files, but little else is known about it. The WesHacks website remove all references to `Leostop` as of 17 November 2024.
