Title

SillyTavern: Reflected XSS vulnerability in the CORS proxy middleware

Summary

SillyTavern is a locally installed user interface that allows users to interact with text generation large language models, image generation engines, and text-to-speech voice models. Prior to 1.18.0, when fetch(url) throws, the code sends: res.status(500).send('Error occurred while trying to proxy to: ' + url + ' ' + error). The url value is attacker-controlled (req.params.url) and is not HTML-escaped before rendering. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.18.0.

Severity

6.9 (Medium)

GHSA-XC4X-2452-5GC9

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-12 22:23 – Updated: 2026-05-12 22:23

Summary

SillyTavern has a reflected XSS vulnerability in the CORS proxy middleware

Details

Resolution

Fixed in SillyTavern 1.18.0: a user-provided URL is no longer reflected in the HTTP response body.

Overview

Vulnerability Type: XSS
Affected Location: src/middleware/corsProxy.js:40
Trigger Scenario: reflected XSS in CORS proxy error response

Root Cause

When fetch(url) throws, the code sends: res.status(500).send('Error occurred while trying to proxy to: ' + url + ' ' + error). The url value is attacker-controlled (req.params.url) and is not HTML-escaped before rendering.

Source-to-Sink Chain

Source (user-controlled input)
Entry point: GET /proxy/:url(*)
Data flow
Code analysis shows concrete propagation into this sink:
vulnerability title: Reflected XSS in CORS proxy error response
sink location reached by attacker-controlled input: src/middleware/corsProxy.js:40
The same sink behavior is confirmed by controlled execution observations.
Sink (dangerous operation)
Sink location: src/middleware/corsProxy.js:40
Vulnerable behavior: reflected XSS in CORS proxy error response

Exploitation Preconditions

The attacker can inject controllable content into a rendered response.
The vulnerable rendering context does not apply strict output encoding/sanitization.
A victim user opens the affected page or response.

Risk

This issue enables script execution in the victim context and can compromise session or data integrity.

Impact

An attacker may run arbitrary JavaScript in the victim context, steal tokens, and manipulate user-visible behavior.

Remediation

Never concatenate raw user input into HTML error responses.
If URL echo is required, HTML-escape it or force plain-text output.
Re-enable/strengthen CSP to reduce reflected injection impact.

Severity

6.9 (Medium)

Data flow\n- Code analysis shows concrete propagation into this sink:\n  - vulnerability title: `Reflected XSS in CORS proxy error response`\n  - sink location reached by attacker-controlled input: `src/middleware/corsProxy.js:40`\n- The same sink behavior is confirmed by controlled execution observations.\n\n3. Sink (dangerous operation)\n- Sink location: `src/middleware/corsProxy.js:40`\n- Vulnerable behavior: reflected XSS in CORS proxy error response\n\n## Exploitation Preconditions\n1. The attacker can inject controllable content into a rendered response.\n2. The vulnerable rendering context does not apply strict output encoding/sanitization.\n3. A victim user opens the affected page or response.\n\n## Risk\nThis issue enables script execution in the victim context and can compromise session or data integrity.\n\n## Impact\nAn attacker may run arbitrary JavaScript in the victim context, steal tokens, and manipulate user-visible behavior.\n\n## Remediation\n1. Never concatenate raw user input into HTML error responses.\n2. If URL echo is required, HTML-escape it or force plain-text output.\n3. Re-enable/strengthen CSP to reduce reflected injection impact.",
