Summary

Craft CMS has Stored XSS in Table Field via "HTML" Column Type

Details

A stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the editableTable.twig component when using the html column type. The application fails to sanitize the input, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript when another user views a page with the malicious table field.

Prerequisites

An administrator account
allowAdminChanges must be enabled in production, which is against our security recommendations.

Steps to Reproduce

Navigate to Settings → Fields and create a new field with Type: Table
Add a Column Heading and set Column Type to Single-line text
- Note: The vulnerable Column Type is html, but it's not available in the UI dropdown.
In Default Values section, add a row with the following payload: html <img src=x onerror="alert('XSS')">
Enable Static Rows
Intercept the Save Field request using a proxy tool (e.g., Burp Suite) or use cURL directly
Modify the request body and change the types[craft-fields-Table][columns][col3][type] parameter from singleline to html
Forward the request to save the field
Use the field in any object (e.g. user profile fields) → then visit the any user's profile
Notice the XSS execution
The XSS will also trigger when an administrator attempts to edit this field, as the malicious payload is executed within the field configuration page, too.

Title

Craft CMS has Stored XSS in Table Field via "HTML" Column Type

Summary

Craft is a content management system (CMS). In versions 4.5.0-RC1 through 4.16.18 and 5.0.0-RC1 through 5.8.22, a stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the `editableTable.twig` component when using the `html` column type. The application fails to sanitize the input, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript when another user views a page with the malicious table field.
