### Impact The Pinecone Simulator (pineconesim) included in Pinecone up to commit https://github.com/matrix-org/pinecone/commit/ea4c33717fd74ef7d6f49490625a0fa10e3f5bbc is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting. The payload storage is not permanent and will be wiped when restarting pineconsim. ### Patches Commit https://github.com/matrix-org/pinecone/commit/218b2801995b174085cb1c8fafe2d3aa661f85bd contains the fixes. ### Workarounds N/A ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory, please email us at [security at matrix.org](mailto:security@matrix.org).
As reported by [Aakash Adhikari](https://hackerone.com/dark_haxor), Github: @justlife4x4, the Design > Themes > Skin (Images / CSS) config field allows a Stored XSS when it contains an end script tag. ### Impact A malicious user with access to this configuration field could use a Stored XSS to affect other authenticated admin users in the admin panel. The attack requires an admin user with configuration access, so in practice, it is not very likely to be used for gaining elevated privileges, although it could theoretically be used to impersonate other users. 
Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in seajs v.2.2.3 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the seajs package
Prism (aka PrismJS) through 1.29.0 allows DOM Clobbering (with resultant XSS for untrusted input that contains HTML but does not directly contain JavaScript), because document.currentScript lookup can be shadowed by attacker-injected HTML elements.
Stage.js through 0.8.10 allows DOM Clobbering (with resultant XSS for untrusted input that contains HTML but does not directly contain JavaScript), because document.currentScript lookup can be shadowed by attacker-injected HTML elements.
### Summary The site title field at /panel/options/site/allows embedding JS tags, which can be used to attack all members of the system. This is a widespread attack and can cause significant damage if there is a considerable number of users. ### Impact The attack is widespread, leveraging what XSS can do. This will undoubtedly impact system availability. ### Patches - [**Formwork 2.x** (aa3e9c6)](https://github.com/getformwork/formwork/commit/aa3e9c684035d9e8495169fde7c57d97faa3f9a2) escapes site title from panel header navigation. ### Details By embedding "<!--", the source code can be rendered non-functional, significantly impacting system availability. However, the attacker would need admin privileges, making the attack more difficult to execute. ### PoC  1. The page where the vulnerability was found, and the attack surface is the Title field.  was discovered in [copyparty](https://github.com/9001/copyparty), a portable fileserver. The vulnerability is considered low-risk. ## Details By handing someone a maliciously-named file, and then tricking them into dragging the file into copyparty's Web-UI, an attacker could execute arbitrary javascript with the same privileges as that user. For example, this could give unintended read-access to files owned by that user. The bug is triggered by the drag-drop action itself; it is not necessary to actually initiate the upload. The file must be empty (zero bytes). Note: As a general-purpose webserver, it is intentionally possible to upload HTML-files with arbitrary javascript in `<script>` tags, which will execute when the file is opened. The difference is that this vulnerability would trigger execution of javascript during the act of uploading, and not when the uploaded file was opened. ## Proof of Conce...
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in a virtual tour framework has been weaponized by malicious actors to inject malicious scripts across hundreds of websites with the goal of manipulating search results and fueling a spam ads campaign at scale. Security researcher Oleg Zaytsev, in a report shared with The Hacker News, said the campaign – dubbed 360XSS – affected over 350 websites,
> [!NOTE] > This advisory was originally emailed to community@solidjs.com by @nsysean. To sum it up, the use of javascript's `.replace()` opens up to potential XSS vulnerabilities with the special replacement patterns beginning with `$`. Particularly, when the attributes of `Meta` tag from solid-meta are user-defined, attackers can utilise the special replacement patterns, either `$'` or `$\`` to achieve XSS. The solid-meta package has this issue since it uses `useAffect` and context providers, which injects the used assets in the html header. "dom-expressions" uses `.replace()` to insert the assets, which is vulnerable to the special replacement patterns listed above. This effectively means that if the attributes of an asset tag contained user-controlled data, it would be vulnerable to XSS. For instance, there might be meta tags for the open graph protocol in a user profile page, but if attackers set the user query to some payload abusing `.replace()`, then they could execute a...
