CVE-2026-40593 Details
Description
ChurchCRM is an open-source church management system. In versions prior to 7.2.0, the User Editor (UserEditor.php) renders stored usernames directly into an HTML input value attribute without applying htmlspecialchars(). An administrator can save a username containing HTML attribute-breaking characters and event handlers, which execute in the browser of any administrator who subsequently views that user's editor page, resulting in stored XSS. This issue has been fixed in version 7.2.0.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in ChurchCRM versions prior to 7.2.0. The issue arises in the User Editor (UserEditor.php), where saved usernames are rendered directly into an HTML input value attribute without proper HTML encoding. This allows an administrator to inject HTML attribute-breaking characters and event handlers, which are executed in the browser of any administrator who later views that user's editor page.
This vulnerability has been patched in ChurchCRM version 7.2.0.
