CVE-2026-59188 Details
Description
Part-DB is an open source inventory management system for electronic components. Prior to version 2.12.3, Part-DB-server sanitizes SVG files based solely on the user-controlled filename extension rather than actual file content type. An authenticated attacker can upload a malicious SVG with JavaScript payload using a non-SVG extension (e.g., .jpg), bypassing sanitization entirely. When any user views the attachment inline, the browser receives Content-Type: image/svg+xml and executes the embedded script in the Part-DB origin. This issue has been patched in version 2.12.3.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in Part-DB-server versions prior to 2.12.3. The issue arises because SVG files are sanitized based only on the user-controlled filename extension, allowing an authenticated attacker to upload a malicious SVG containing a JavaScript payload using a non-SVG extension, such as .jpg. This bypasses the sanitization process entirely. When the attachment is viewed inline, the browser receives the correct Content-Type of image/svg+xml, which triggers the execution of the embedded script within the Part-DB origin. This vulnerability has been patched in version 2.12.3.
Users are advised to update to Part-DB version 2.12.3 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
