CVE-2026-3990 Details
Description
A security flaw has been discovered in CesiumGS CesiumJS up to 1.137.0. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file Apps/Sandcastle/standalone.html. The manipulation of the argument c results in cross site scripting. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks. The presence of this vulnerability remains uncertain at this time. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. According to CVE-2023-48094, "the vendor's position is that Apps/Sandcastle/standalone.html is part of the CesiumGS/cesium GitHub repository, but is demo code that is not part of the CesiumJS JavaScript library product."
A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in CesiumGS CesiumJS versions through 1.137.0. The issue resides in the Sandcastle standalone demo viewer, specifically within the 'Apps/Sandcastle/standalone.html' file. The vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject malicious scripts by manipulating the URL hash parameter, which is then executed in the context of the victim's browser.
To address this vulnerability, it is recommended to sanitize user input by escaping HTML before inserting it into the DOM. Additionally, validate the 'baseHref' parameter against an allowlist of trusted paths, and implement a Content Security Policy that restricts script execution.
