MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Execution, Initial Access The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires authenticated access to the application (PR:L in CVSS vector) - an attacker must have valid user credentials or have compromised an existing account. The attacker must access the Tailwind Config Generator component and be able to submit or edit plugin configuration values (specifically the plugins array in self.config). No special configuration is required beyond standard deployment of the vulnerable version up to 2.5.0. The Tailwind Config Generator must be in use within the application; organizations not using this component are not affected. Network access to the application is required (AV:N), but the attack does not require user interaction (UI:N) beyond credential acquisition. Default configurations of ui-ux-pro-max-skill versions 2.5.0 and earlier contain the vulnerable code; the vulnerability exists out-of-the-box without requiring additional feature enablement. |
| Impact | CVSS 6.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) indicates network-exploitable code injection requiring authenticated access but low attack complexity and no user interaction. EPSS data is not provided, but the E:P flag (exploit published) confirms publicly available POC. The PR:L (requires login) requirement significantly limits real-world risk compared to unauthenticated vectors - attackers must already have valid credentials. However, the C:L/I:L/A:L impact scores signal code execution capability affecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The combination of published exploit, confirmed patch availability, and authenticated-only requirement suggests this is a moderate-priority issue: critical for organizations where user accounts are compromised or insider threats exist, but lower urgency than network-exploitable RCE. The unvalidated code generation pattern is a systematic weakness; defenders should verify whether similar injection points exist elsewhere in the codebase. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An authenticated attacker with user account access to the ui-ux-pro-max-skill application submits a malicious plugin name such as 'tailwindcss-evil'; require('tailwindcss-evil'); process.exit(1); // (bypassing the intended require() call) or '@scope/pkg"; maliciousCode(); "' via the Tailwind Config Generator UI. The unvalidated _format_plugins function generates a config file containing the injected code. When the config is processed or deployed, the arbitrary JavaScript executes in the application runtime, potentially exfiltrating secrets, modifying files, or compromising the build pipeline. The published POC (linked in GitHub issue #246) demonstrates this attack vector. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – May 01, 2026
Code injection vulnerability in nextlevelbuilder ui-ux-pro-max-skill up to 2.5.0 allows authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unsanitized plugin names in the Tailwind Config Generator. The _format_plugins function constructs require() statements without validation, enabling attackers with login credentials to inject malicious JavaScript into the Tailwind configuration. Publicly available exploit code exists and the vendor has released a patch via pull request, though adoption status is unconfirmed.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to the patched version of ui-ux-pro-max-skill released after the merge of PR #275, which implements regex-based plugin name validation. Patch details: the fix adds _VALID_PLUGIN_NAME regex pattern enforcement in _format_plugins() to reject any plugin names containing characters outside the npm package naming specification (alphanumeric, hyphens, dots, underscores, @scope prefix, and subpaths only). Mitigating code change: reject plugin values not matching '^(@[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+/)?[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+(/[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+)*$' and raise ValueError with message indicating invalid npm package name. For deployments on unpatched versions, restrict access to the Tailwind Config Generator interface to trusted administrators only and implement code review of all generated config files before deployment. No workarounds short of restricting feature access are recommended, as the plugin injection point is inherent to the design. Patch reference: https://github.com/nextlevelbuilder/ui-ux-pro-max-skill/pull/275.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability resides in the _format_plugins method of tailwind_config_gen.py, which dynamically generates JavaScript require() statements from user-supplied plugin names without input validation. Tailwind CSS plugins are loaded via require() calls in the generated config file; an attacker can inject arbitrary code by crafting malicious plugin names containing JavaScript syntax (e.g., semicolons, parentheses, or escaped quotes). The root cause is CWE-94 (Improper Control of Generation of Code) combined with insufficient allowlisting. The fix implements strict regex validation (_VALID_PLUGIN_NAME) matching only valid npm package naming conventions: optional @scope prefix, alphanumeric characters, hyphens, dots, underscores, and forward slashes for subpaths - explicitly blocking quotes, parentheses, and semicolons. Affected versions up to 2.5.0 generate unsafe config via this unvalidated pipeline.

Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw has been found in nextlevelbuilder ui-ux-pro-max-skill up to 2.5.0. Affected by this vulnerability is the function _format_plugins of the file .claude/skills/ui-styling/scripts/tailwind_config_gen.py of the component Tailwind Config Generator. This manipulation causes code injection. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through a pull request but has not reacted yet.

Priority Score
Attack Technique
Code injection occurs when an application accepts user input and passes it directly into a language interpreter or evaluator without proper sanitization.
Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access.
