Technical description

SVGO, short for SVG Optimizer, is a Node.js library and command-line application for optimizing SVG files. From version 1.0.0 until versions 2.8.3, 3.3.4, and 4.0.2, the removeScripts plugin, named removeScriptElement in versions 1 through 3, can leave executable content in optimized SVGs because it does not remove namespaced or prefixed script elements such as <svg:script> and, in versions 3 and 4, matches JavaScript URIs case sensitively. Applications that process untrusted SVG input with this plugin enabled and serve the result can allow scripts to execute when another user opens the SVG, exposing local storage or cookies. This issue is fixed in versions 2.8.3, 3.3.4, and 4.0.2.

———Rocket.Chat in versions before 8.8.0, 8.7.1, 8.6.2, 8.5.3, 8.4.6, 8.3.8, 8.2.8, 8.1.8, and 7.10.15 has a REST API endpoint POST /api/v1/livechat/visitor that accepts an unauthenticated, unsanitized name field for Livechat visitors. This name is stored raw and later rendered via dangerouslySetInnerHTML in the Omnichannel Queue side panel (InquireSidePanelItem.tsx), injecting a real, clickable HTML link - pointing to any attacker-controlled domain, with arbitrary social-engineering text - into the DOM of any agent viewing the queue.6h CVE-2026-184097.2 HIG

———The WPForms Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Single Line Text and Paragraph Text Field Values in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.0.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The exploit relies on the plugin's own wp_kses_allowed_html filter widening the 'post' allowlist to permit iframe elements with a data-src attribute, which is not on WordPress's URI-attribute sanitization list, allowing a javascript: URI stored in data-src to survive kses processing and subsequently be promoted to a live src attribute by the bundled admin script view-entry.min.js.6h CVE-2026-776434.4 MED

———A cross-site scripting vulnerability in queryparser/termgenerator_internal.cc in Xapian xapian-core before 2.1.0 and before 1.4.32 exists due to incomplete HTML escaping by Xapian::MSet::snippet(). NOTE: this issue exists because of a missed corner case of CVE-2018-0499.12h CVE-2026-728608.5 HIG

———The POST /api/provider-nodes/validate route in 9router takes a caller-supplied baseUrl and issues server-side HTTP requests to it, guarding the destination with assertPublicUrl from src/shared/utils/ssrfGuard.js. That guard compares hostname strings only: it resolves no DNS, does not revalidate after a redirect, and its IPv4-mapped IPv6 branch is unreachable. The branch matches ^::ffff:(\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+)$, but the WHATWG URL parser canonicalizes such literals to hextets before the guard runs, so new URL("http://[::ffff:127.0.0.1]/").hostname yields [::ffff:7f00:1] and the pattern is tested against a string it is never handed. Every IPv4-mapped address therefore passes, and http://[::ffff:7f00:1] and http://[::ffff:a9fe:a9fe] reach loopback and link-local metadata addresses; a hostname whose A record points at an internal address passes as well because no resolution occurs. In the custom-embedding branch the upstream response body is truncated to 200 bytes and returned to the caller whenever the upstream status is neither 2xx nor 401 nor 403, which discloses the beginning of internal responses, and the other validation types remain usable for blind internal port scanning through status and timing differences. The caller-supplied apiKey is forwarded to the internal destination as an Authorization Bearer header. A dashboard session is required by default, and none is required when requireLogin is disabled.12h CVE-2026-554915.4 MED

———BigBlueButton is an open-source virtual classroom. Prior to 3.0.29, BigBlueButton failed to escape meetingName in record-and-playback/screenshare/playback/index.html.erb when generating the screenshare playback format. A low-privileged user could store a crafted meeting name that embedded script content, and the script executed in another user's browser when that user replayed the recording. This issue is fixed in version 3.0.29.12h CVE-2026-54505—

———TREK is a collaborative travel planner. Prior to 3.1.0, when the Journey add-on is enabled, TREK interpolates the unescaped activeSuggestion.title value into journey.frontpage.suggestionText through client/src/i18n/TranslationContext.tsx and renders the result with dangerouslySetInnerHTML in client/src/pages/JourneyPage.tsx. A trip owner can store HTML in a qualifying trip title, and GET /api/journeys/suggestions returns that title through getSuggestions(userId) to a collaborator who opens the authenticated Journey page. The markup is inserted as live DOM in the collaborator's session, enabling content spoofing and UI redress, although the default Content Security Policy blocks inline handlers and script execution. This issue is fixed in version 3.1.0.12h
