Stored XSS via unescaped SVG attributes
Published Feb 19, 2026 · Updated Feb 19, 2026
Cross-site scripting in Fabric.js before 7.2.0 allows remote attackers to execute JavaScript via crafted JSON exported as SVG. Deserialization assigns arbitrary object properties verbatim, and SVG exporters interpolate identifiers and source values into XML attributes without escaping. Exploitation requires an application to accept attacker-controlled JSON, call toSVG(), and render the resulting SVG in a victim's browser.
