MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the victim to import a maliciously crafted electronic library (.lbr) file into the Autodesk Fusion desktop application and then open the Library Manager, which renders the attacker-controlled HTML in the library's description field and triggers the stored XSS. Limiting factors: this is a local, file-delivery attack (AV:L) requiring user interaction (UI:R) - the attacker must get a specific crafted .lbr file onto the victim's machine and induce them to import and view it; it is not remotely triggerable without that user action. The affected window is Fusion builds from 2705.1.30 up to (but not including) 2706.1.14; versions at or above 2706.1.14 are fixed per the vendor advisory. |
| Impact | This is a genuine but conditional risk rather than a drop-everything emergency, and the signals are largely consistent. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N, 7.1 High) describes a local, low-complexity flaw that requires victim interaction: the attacker does not authenticate to the target (PR:N), but the malicious .lbr library file must be imported and then viewed in the Library Manager by the victim (AV:L + UI:R). The vuln.today decision label is 'this_week', which aligns with a serious-but-not-active-exploitation posture. There is no KEV listing and no EPSS score in the provided data, so widespread or automated exploitation is not indicated; exploitation would be targeted and social-engineering-dependent (delivering a weaponized library file to a Fusion user). No EPSS value was supplied, so probability-of-exploitation cannot be quantified from this data. The impact ceiling is high (C:H/I:H) because the advisory states the payload can read local files or execute arbitrary code in the process context, but A:N means no availability impact. Net: a real priority to patch within the vendor/triage-suggested window, but gated behind user interaction and a non-remote (local file) attack vector, so it is not a wormable, internet-facing threat. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker crafts a Fusion electronic library (.lbr) file whose description field contains a malicious HTML/script payload and distributes it (e.g., via a shared component library, marketplace, or targeted email) to a Fusion user. When the victim imports the library and opens the Library Manager, the stored payload executes in the application context, enabling the attacker to read local files or run arbitrary code as the current user. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; exploitation depends on convincing the victim to import and view the crafted library (UI:R). |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 28, 2026
Stored cross-site scripting in the Autodesk Fusion desktop application allows a maliciously crafted HTML payload embedded in the description field of an electronic library (.lbr) file to execute when that library is imported and rendered in the Library Manager. Successful exploitation can let an attacker read local files or execute arbitrary code in the context of the Fusion process, so the impact extends beyond a typical cosmetic script injection even though the attack is not remotely triggerable. Affected builds are Fusion 2705.1.30 up to, but not including, 2706.1.14; the vendor has released a fix, no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the current priority decision places remediation in the this_week window.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Autodesk Fusion to build 2706.1.14 or later; this is the vendor-released fix and the version boundary stated in Autodesk advisory adsk-sa-2026-0019 (https://www.autodesk.com/trust/security-advisories/adsk-sa-2026-0019). Updates can be applied through the normal Autodesk update channel or by reinstalling with the vendor-provided client downloaders referenced in the advisory (https://dl.appstreaming.autodesk.com/production/installers/Fusion%20Client%20Downloader.exe for Windows and https://dl.appstreaming.autodesk.com/production/installers/Fusion%20Client%20Downloader.dmg for macOS). Because exploitation is only reachable when a user imports a crafted .lbr file and then opens the Library Manager, organisations that cannot patch immediately can reduce exposure in the interim by preventing users from importing .lbr libraries obtained from untrusted or unsolicited sources and by auditing already-imported libraries for unexpected HTML content in their description fields; these measures lower the chance of delivery but do not remove the underlying rendering flaw, so upgrading remains the complete fix.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The flaw is classified as CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation, i.e. cross-site scripting), but the rendering surface here is not a conventional browser tab - it is the web-rendering component inside the Autodesk Fusion desktop client that displays library metadata. An .lbr electronic library carries a free-text description field; when the library is imported and its details are shown in the Library Manager, attacker-controlled HTML in that field is rendered without adequate sanitisation, so script executes with the privileges of the Fusion process rather than inside a remote site's origin sandbox. That origin collapse is what turns a stored XSS into a local file read or code execution primitive in the host process. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:autodesk:fusion identifies the affected product family; the vulnerable window covers builds from 2705.1.30 through 2706.1.14. The assessed vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R) confirms this is a local, file-delivery attack requiring a user to import the crafted file and open the Library Manager - not a network-reachable service flaw.

DescriptionNVD
A maliciously crafted HTML payload in the description of an electronic library (.lbr) file, when displayed in the Library Manager after the library is imported, can trigger a Stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Autodesk Fusion desktop application. A malicious actor may leverage this vulnerability to read local files or execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.
Executive ViewAI
Autodesk Fusion has a high-severity stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows malicious code execution when a user imports a specially crafted library file. This affects engineering and design teams using Fusion, potentially leading to unauthorized access to local files or execution of arbitrary code, which could compromise intellectual property or lead to operational disruption. Leadership should prioritize remediation given the product's role in critical design workflows.

Cross-Site Scripting occurs when an application accepts untrusted data and sends it to a web browser without proper validation or encoding.
Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access.
