CVE-2020-11055 (GCVE-0-2020-11055)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2020-05-07 20:40 – Updated: 2024-08-04 11:21
VLAI?
Summary
In BookStack greater than or equal to 0.18.0 and less than 0.29.2, there is an XSS vulnerability in comment creation. A user with permission to create comments could POST HTML directly to the system to be saved in a comment, which would then be executed/displayed to others users viewing the comment. Through this vulnerability custom JavaScript code could be injected and therefore ran on other user machines. This most impacts scenarios where not-trusted users are given permission to create comments. This has been fixed in 0.29.2.
Severity ?
