CVE-2024-49751Network attack vector

Self-only HTML injection via insufficient name sanitization

Published Oct 23, 2024 · Updated Oct 23, 2024

HTML injection in Frappe Press allows remote attackers to alter their own signup display via crafted first or last names. The account_request function in press/api/saas.py passed first_name and last_name through sanitize_html, which preserved unsafe HTML; the patch replaces it with clean_html. Reachability requires submitting SaaS signup data and interacting with the rendered result, and the injected markup affects only the submitting attacker, not other users.
