Exploitation Conditions

Requires an authenticated account with technician-level privileges (PR:H) able to edit supplier records, specifically to inject markup into the supplier 'website' field. Exploitation is stored/persistent but only triggers when a second user opens the affected item's suppliers list within the contact-supplier or contract-supplier views (UI:P). Limiting factors: attacker must already hold a privileged internal account or compromise one; a victim must actively navigate to the suppliers list; and only GLPI versions 11.0.6 through pre-11.0.8 are affected (patched in 11.0.8). This is effectively an insider/privileged-account XSS vector rather than remote-unauthenticated.

Impact

This is a stored XSS (CWE-116, improper output encoding) in GLPI's supplier website fields, confirmed by the vendor security advisory GHSA-8v8p-w8mq-wqcg and the fixing commit 970786ed. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H, score 8.5) shows two important limiting factors: PR:H means the payload can only be planted by an authenticated technician-level account, and UI:P means a victim must actively open the affected item's suppliers list. The vendor's rating of VC:H/VI:H/VA:H (full high impact on all three) appears overstated for a stored XSS confined to a rendered web page - realistic impact is session/action hijacking within another user's browser context, not direct full compromise of confidentiality/integrity/availability. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit code are provided, so there is no signal of active exploitation or automation. No SSVC decision data was supplied. Net: this is a legitimate flaw to patch but is not a high-urgency, mass-exploitable issue - it requires an already-privileged insider (or a compromised technician account) to plant the payload and a second user to view it, making it more of a targeted/insider risk than a widespread threat.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An authenticated GLPI technician (or an attacker who has phished/compromised such an account) edits a supplier record and stores a JavaScript payload in the website field. When another user - potentially a higher-privileged administrator - later opens that item's suppliers list (via the contact or contract supplier view), the script executes in their browser session, enabling session/action hijacking in GLPI. No public proof-of-concept exploit is identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 25, 2026

Stored cross-site scripting in GLPI 11.0.6 through 11.0.8 allows an authenticated technician to inject active markup into supplier website fields, which executes in the browser of any user who opens the suppliers list for the affected contact or contract. The vulnerability is fixed in version 11.0.8, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Successful exploitation requires a privileged account (PR:H) and user interaction from a victim (UI:P), and the impact is limited to the victim's session context (CVSS 4.0 score 8.5).

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: 11.0.8. Upgrade to GLPI 11.0.8 or later. The fixing commit 970786ed3b817c4c2bf90b8457b024ec566b1bfc applies htmlescape() to supplier website fields. If immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict the ability to edit supplier records to trusted administrators only, since the attacker must be an authenticated technician (PR:H). Additionally, monitor supplier website fields for injected markup. Compensating controls include network segmentation and limiting technician accounts, but these do not fully eliminate risk because the stored payload executes when a privileged user views the suppliers list. See advisory GHSA-8v8p-w8mq-wqcg for details.

Technical ContextAI · show details

GLPI is a PHP-based open-source IT asset and service management platform. The flaw is CWE-116 (Improper Encoding or Escaping of Output): the supplier 'website' field is rendered without HTML escaping in Contact_Supplier.php and Contract_Supplier.php. Commit 970786ed3b817c4c2bf90b8457b024ec566b1bfc adds htmlescape() around $data["website"] in both files. Affected versions are 11.0.6 through 11.0.7 (fixed in 11.0.8). The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N) indicates network attack, high privileges required, passive user interaction, and high impact to the vulnerable component without scope change.

DescriptionCVE.org

GLPI is a free asset and IT management software package. From 11.0.6 until 11.0.8, an authenticated technician can store active markup in supplier website fields. Any user who opens the affected item's suppliers list triggers the stored cross-site scripting payload. This issue is fixed in version 11.0.8.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

GLPI, a widely used IT asset and helpdesk management platform, is affected by a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in versions 11.0.6 through 11.0.8. An authenticated technician can inject malicious scripts into supplier website fields, which then execute in the browsers of any user viewing the suppliers list, potentially leading to session hijacking, data theft, or unauthorized access to sensitive IT management functions. Leadership should prioritize remediation because this flaw could enable lateral movement within the IT environment and compromise the confidentiality of supplier and contract data.
