CVE-2025-13167Network attack vector

Limited file read and write via contact XSS

Published May 27, 2026 · Updated May 27, 2026

Cross-site scripting in Synology Contacts before 1.0.10-20659 allows remote authenticated users to read or write limited files. The contact functionality places attacker-controlled input into generated web content without proper neutralization, but Synology has not disclosed a file, function, parameter, or request vector. Low-privileged access and interaction by another user are required; the bounded impact is reading or writing specific files containing non-sensitive information.
