Cross-site scripting via unescaped OAuth display names
Published Feb 6, 2026 · Updated Feb 6, 2026
Cross-site scripting in Mattermost Confluence Plugin before 1.7.0 allows remote authenticated users to run JavaScript in victim browsers. The HTML template renderer inserts a Confluence display name into an OAuth connection link without escaping the user-controlled value. A victim must open the crafted link; successful execution can read or alter data available to that victim's browser session without interrupting service.
