Stored script execution via unsanitized user names
Published Feb 20, 2026 · Updated Feb 20, 2026
Stored cross-site scripting in OrientDB 3.0.17 allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts in other users' browsers. The document endpoint stores the OUser name field without neutralizing script markup, and Studio renders that name during Security Manager delete actions. A database-authenticated account able to create users can trigger script execution when another user opens the affected Studio view, exposing that user's browser session to data access or modification.
