CVE-2026-112289 Details
Description
Koalixcrm through 1.14.0 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows staff users to inject script by storing malicious task titles rendered unescaped by Task.link_to_task(). Attackers can embed HTML or script that executes when administrators open the task changelist or change form, enabling actions like creating a superuser.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in KoalixCRM versions through 1.14.0. This issue allows staff users to inject scripts by entering malicious titles for tasks. The injected scripts are executed when administrators access the task changelist or change form. The vulnerability arises because the task titles are rendered without proper escaping, allowing for the execution of embedded HTML or scripts. Exploiting this vulnerability could enable an attacker to perform actions such as creating a superuser.
The vulnerability can be remediated by modifying the 'link_to_task' method in the 'Task' model. Instead of using Python's string formatting to build an HTML string before passing it to 'format_html', which renders the content unescaped, the method should pass the format arguments directly to 'format_html'. This change ensures that 'format_html' properly escapes each argument, preventing the execution of injected scripts.
