Arbitrary script execution via HTML-rendered node names
Published Aug 17, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Cross-site scripting in CherryTree 0.99.30 allows attackers to execute arbitrary HTML or web scripts through a crafted node name. The node-deletion path interprets a subnode's Name value as HTML instead of plain text, causing injected markup to execute. The trigger requires deletion of the crafted node, so the payload runs only after that user interaction in the application's rendering context.
