CVE-2024-53864Network attack vector

Stored script execution via unsafe tooltip HTML insertion

Published Nov 29, 2024 · Updated Dec 2, 2024

Stored XSS in Ibexa Admin UI 4.6.0 through 4.6.13 allows remote authenticated users to execute script through a Content name pattern field. The tooltip height helper assigns field-derived text to a temporary element's innerHTML property, causing embedded markup to be parsed instead of treated as text. Content edit permission is required; the injected markup executes when a browser renders the affected tooltip, enabling actions in the viewing user's session.
