CVE-2026-44371Network attack vector

Stored XSS via unneutralized file-browser filenames

Published May 14, 2026 · Updated May 14, 2026

Stored XSS in affected Open OnDemand releases allows remote attackers to execute JavaScript in another user's browser via a crafted filename. The Files application renders user-controlled filenames in the file browser without adequate output neutralization, allowing filename markup to run as script. Execution requires a user to browse a directory containing the crafted filename, and the script is limited to that user's browser context.
