DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Docmost is open-source collaborative wiki and documentation software. In versions 0.3.0 through 0.23.2, Mermaid code block rendering is vulnerable to stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). The frontend can render attacker-controlled Mermaid diagrams using mermaid.render(), then inject the returned SVG/HTML into the DOM via dangerouslySetInnerHTML without sanitization. Mermaid per-diagram %%{init}%% directives allow overriding securityLevel and enabling htmlLabels, permitting arbitrary HTML/JS execution for any viewer. This issue has been fixed in version 0.24.0.

AnalysisAI

Stored XSS in Docmost 0.3.0-0.23.2 allows authenticated users to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the browsers of document viewers through malicious Mermaid diagram code blocks. The vulnerability exists because unsanitized SVG/HTML output from Mermaid rendering is directly injected into the DOM, and Mermaid's security controls can be disabled via diagram directives. …
