Published Sep 13, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 5.4 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed

Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

A stored cross‑site scripting flaw (CWE‑79) in the Repetico web backend lets an authenticated user submit malicious JavaScript into the text field of a multiple‑choice question. When the question is later displayed by the Android client, the payload runs in the app’s JavaScript context, giving the attacker permission to execute arbitrary scripts within the application.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability exists only in the Repetico web backend, version 1.9.7.31 for Android. No other vendors, product lines or versions are listed in the advisory.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.4 indicates a medium‑severity flaw, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low probability of current exploitation; the vulnerability is not in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploitation requires a remote authenticated user to upload a malicious question, after which any viewer of that question on the Android app will have the embedded script executed in the app’s context.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Repetico web backend to a patched release that resolves the XSS flaw.
  • Ensure that any input in the multiple‑choice question field is properly sanitized or encoded before rendering, preventing unsanitized data from being inserted into the DOM.
  • Deploy a Content Security Policy that disallows inline script execution and restricts script sources to trusted origins.
