MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated low-privilege account in SharePoint Manager Plus (PR:L) that can set or influence user-controlled attributes consumed by the chart feature - specifically a user's full name, a site name, or a group name. The stored payload only fires when another user renders the affected chart, so successful attack also depends on passive victim interaction (UI:P) by a user viewing those charts, ideally a higher-privileged administrator to maximize impact. Limiting factors: the attacker cannot act fully unauthenticated, cannot force immediate execution without a victim loading the chart, and the condition is tied to the chart-rendering code path for those specific attributes; environments where untrusted users cannot populate these name fields are correspondingly harder to exploit. The complete fix is upgrading to client application build 4508 as stated by the vendor; no alternative mitigation is provided in the available sources. |
| Impact | This is a genuine but conditional risk rather than a drop-everything emergency. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity stored XSS that requires the attacker to hold a low-privilege authenticated account (PR:L) and requires passive victim interaction (UI:P) - a legitimate user viewing the affected chart. The high impact scores (VC:H, and subsequent-system SC:H/SI:H/SA:H) reflect that injected script runs in the browser context of other users, including likely higher-privileged SharePoint administrators, which is why the composite score reaches 8.5. However, no EPSS probability, no CISA KEV listing, and no PoC are present in the supplied data, so there is no evidence of active or at-scale exploitation. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_week' (not act_now/emergency), consistent with a serious-but-not-under-active-attack posture. Net: treat this as a prompt-patch item for environments running SharePoint Manager Plus, weighted by whether low-privilege user accounts can populate the full name, site name, or group name fields that feed the chart feature. EPSS/KEV signals are absent, not low - their absence should not be read as proof the issue is low-risk. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privilege authenticated SharePoint Manager Plus user sets their full name (or a site/group name they control) to a value containing a malicious HTML/JavaScript payload. The payload is stored and later rendered unsanitized when another user - plausibly an administrator - opens a chart that displays those attributes, executing the script in that victim's session. No public exploit code is identified in the available data, but stored XSS of this kind is straightforward to craft once the injectable field is known. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 30, 2026
Stored cross-site scripting in ManageEngine SharePoint Manager Plus before client build 4508 lets authenticated low-privilege users plant HTML or JavaScript in attributes used by the chart feature - users' full names, site names, and group names - which is stored and later executed in another user's browser when the affected chart is rendered. Exploitation is conditional: the attacker needs an account able to influence those fields, and the payload only fires when a victim loads the chart (UI:P), ideally a higher-privileged administrator. The vendor fixed the issue in build 4508; no public exploit was identified at time of analysis, and the vuln.today priority is this_week rather than act-now or emergency.
RemediationAI
Upgrade SharePoint Manager Plus to client application build 4508, the fixed version named in the vendor's announcement (https://pitstop.manageengine.com/portal/en/community/topic/sharepoint-manager-plus-build-4508-is-here); the available sources present this upgrade as the complete fix and provide no alternative mitigation. Until the upgrade is applied, exposure is reduced in environments where untrusted or low-privilege users cannot set or influence the full names, site names, and group names consumed by the chart feature, since that ability is a prerequisite for planting the stored payload; there is no documented configuration change or feature toggle in the supplied sources that removes the sink, and chart rendering still requires a victim to load the affected chart before any injected code executes.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The root cause is CWE-79 improper neutralization of user-controlled input, in its stored variant: strings that populate chart attributes are insufficiently sanitized and HTML-encoded before being placed into the markup or script that the chart feature generates. Because the values persist in the application (full names, site names, group names) and are re-used each time a chart is rendered, the payload executes in the origin of SharePoint Manager Plus under the viewing user's session rather than only in the injector's own browser. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:H/VI:L/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H) and the assessed CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N) agree on network reachability, low privileges, victim interaction, and scope change, with high confidentiality impact and limited integrity impact. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:manageengine:sharepoint_manager_plus:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* indicates the flaw applies across product versions up to the fixed build; the trigger is the chart-rendering code path consuming those specific attributes, and no other injection sink is described in the available sources.

DescriptionCVE.org
A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the chart feature of SharePoint Manager Plus (SPMP) due to improper sanitization and HTML encoding of user-controlled data. An attacker can inject malicious HTML or JavaScript into attributes used to generate charts, including users' full names, site names, or group names. The injected content is stored and subsequently executed in the context of other users' browsers when the affected charts are rendered. This vulnerability was fixed in client application build 4508.
Executive ViewAI
ManageEngine SharePoint Manager Plus contains a stored cross-site scripting flaw (CVE-2026-119680) that allows a low-privilege authenticated user to inject malicious code into chart data fields, which then executes in the browser of any user viewing that chart-including administrators. This puts privileged sessions and sensitive SharePoint data at risk of compromise, though exploitation requires an attacker to first obtain a valid low-privilege account. Leadership should prioritize remediation this week to prevent potential escalation of access and data exposure.
