Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the victim to be an authenticated Thelia 2.6.0 user who clicks an attacker-supplied link whose 'next' parameter contains a double quote that escapes the quoting of a Smarty-rendered attribute in address.html or address-update.html; the injected JavaScript only executes when these specific account/address pages are loaded in the victim's logged-in session. Limiting factors: the attack needs user interaction (clicking the crafted link), the target page requires an active authenticated session to render, and only Thelia instances at or below version 2.6.0 are affected. The attacker themselves needs no credentials or privileges to generate the link.

Impact

This is a textbook moderate-severity reflected XSS (CWE-79), and the signals are internally consistent in pointing to LOW real-world urgency. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N, base 6.1) reflects network reachability and low complexity but is gated by required user interaction (UI:R) and yields only Low confidentiality/integrity impact with no availability effect. EPSS corroborates low risk: 0.16% probability at the 4th percentile, indicating no meaningful mass-exploitation signal. There is no CISA KEV listing and no POC referenced in the provided data, so exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis.' No SSVC decision record was supplied. One nuance to flag explicitly: the CVSS vector carries PR:N (which the precision rules map to 'unauthenticated'), yet the description states the victim must be 'an authenticated user' - these are not actually in conflict, because CVSS PR describes ATTACKER privileges (the attacker needs none to craft the link) while the description describes the VICTIM's session state (the vulnerable address.html/address-update.html pages only render for a logged-in user). This should be understood as attacker-unauthenticated but victim-authenticated, not treated as a data error. Overall: a genuine but low-priority bug - patch in normal cycles, not an emergency.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a URL to a Thelia 2.6.0 store's address or address-update page with a malicious 'next' parameter that breaks out of a double-quoted Smarty-rendered attribute and injects JavaScript. The attacker delivers this link (phishing, forum post, chat) to a logged-in customer; when the victim opens it, the script executes in their authenticated session context. No public exploit code is referenced in the available data, though the single-parameter reflected nature makes a working payload trivial to construct.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 16, 2026

Reflected cross-site scripting in Thelia versions up to 2.6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of an authenticated user's session by crafting a link with a malicious 'next' parameter. The flaw arises from improper escaping of double quotes in the Smarty templates address.html and address-update.html, requiring the victim to click the link while logged in. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis; EPSS estimates a 0.16% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, and the CVSS score is 6.1 (moderate).

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis. Administrators should monitor the vendor advisory (https://kb.cert.org/vuls/id/162329) for updates. As a compensating control, ensure that the 'next' parameter is properly escaped in the affected Smarty templates, specifically by using the escape modifier with 'html' or 'htmlall' and ensuring double quotes are encoded (e.g., ENT_QUOTES in PHP). Alternatively, deploy a web application firewall (WAF) rule to block double quotes in the 'next' parameter, though this may cause false positives for legitimate URLs. Restricting access to the vulnerable account pages to trusted users is not feasible since they require authentication. Disabling the address update functionality temporarily may be considered but impacts legitimate users. Apply the principle of least privilege to limit the impact of successful XSS.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability is a classic reflected XSS (CWE-79) in Thelia's use of the Smarty template engine. Specifically, the 'next' parameter is rendered into an HTML attribute without proper escaping of double quotes, allowing an attacker to break out of the attribute and inject arbitrary HTML/JavaScript. The affected templates are address.html and address-update.html, which are used in account management pages. Because the attack requires the victim to be authenticated and to visit a crafted link, it is a user-interaction-dependent issue. The CVSS vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) reflects network exploitable with no privileges required for the attacker, but the victim must be an authenticated user. CPE data indicates all versions of Thelia are potentially affected, with EUVD specifying versions 0 through 2.6.0.

DescriptionCVE.org

Thelia v2.6.0's Smarty templates (address.html and address-update.html) fail to properly escape double quotes in the “next” parameter, enabling reflected Cross‑Site Scripting (XSS) when an authenticated user visits the malicious link containing attacker‑controlled JavaScript.
