Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 13, 2026
Stored cross-site scripting in the Markdown renderer of maalfer Pentestify before v2.3.2 allows authenticated users to inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript within the application's origin by embedding a double-quote character inside a Markdown link URL. The front-end markdownToHtml() function escaped &, <, and > but omitted quote escaping, so a " in a user-supplied URL closes the surrounding href attribute and enables injection of HTML event handlers. The fix in v2.3.2, confirmed by commit 272f7d6 and a tagged GitHub release, adds " and ' escaping to close the gap. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not in the CISA KEV catalog.

DescriptionCVE.org
Cross-site Scripting in the Markdown renderer in maalfer Pentestify before 2.3.2 allows authenticated users to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the application origin via a Markdown link whose URL contains a double quote, which closes the anchor's href attribute because the renderer's sanitization step does not escape quotes
