AnalysisAIv1 – Mar 12, 2026

Stored XSS in 1Panel's App Store allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into application details that execute in users' browsers when viewed, potentially enabling session hijacking or unauthorized system access. Versions up to v1.10.33-lts and v2.0.16 are vulnerable, with no patch currently available. An attacker could publish a compromised application to steal credentials, modify system functions, or compromise system availability.

DescriptionGitHub Advisory

1Panel is an open-source, web-based control panel for Linux server management. A stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the 1Panel App Store when viewing application details. Malicious scripts can execute in the context of the user’s browser, potentially compromising session data or sensitive system interfaces. All versions of 1Panel up to and including v1.10.33-lts and v2.0.16 are affected. An attacker could publish a malicious application that, when loaded by users (locally or remotely), can execute arbitrary scripts. This may result in theft of user cookies, unauthorized access to system functions, or other actions that compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system. The vulnerability is caused by insufficient sanitization of content rendered by the MdEditor component with the previewOnly attribute enabled. Specifically, the App Store renders application README content without proper XSS protection, allowing script execution during content rendering; and similar issues exist in system upgrade-related components, which can be fixed by implementing proper XSS sanitization in the MdEditor component. These vulnerabilities can be mitigated by applying proper XSS protection and sanitization when rendering content in the MdEditor component. Safe versions with a patch incorporated are v1.10.34-lts and v2.0.17.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Organizations using 1Panel should be aware of moderate risk from CVE-2026-23525, a cross-site scripting vulnerability rated CVSS 6.4. Attackers could inject scripts to steal sessions or perform actions as authenticated users. Organizations should apply vendor updates when available and monitor for exploitation.

Business Impact: Low
Compensating Controls

Apply vendor patch. If patching is delayed: implement CSP headers, enable HttpOnly cookies, deploy WAF XSS rules.

Attack Technique

Cross-Site Scripting occurs when an application accepts untrusted data and sends it to a web browser without proper validation or encoding.

Authentication bypass attacks exploit flaws in the verification mechanisms that control access to systems and applications.
