Stored XSS via unsanitized chat history rendering
Published Mar 18, 2026 · Updated Mar 18, 2026
Stored XSS in NotChatbot WebChat 1.5.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute JavaScript via crafted chat messages. The conversation-history renderer stores message input and later inserts it into the page without output encoding or HTML sanitization. Execution occurs when a user reloads or reopens the affected conversation, exposing browser-accessible data and actions to the injected script.
