Description
Munshi (by Petpooja) before 2026-07-13 contained a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows authenticated users to inject malicious markup through item descriptions or messages submitted in the Purchase Inquiry thread (/purchase-inquiry/thread/{thread-id}), which is assigned to innerHTML during rendering before text cleaning completes. Attackers can store a payload that executes in the browser of another user who opens the affected thread, achieving JavaScript execution and full-page defacement that re-triggers whenever the thread is reopened.

AI Analysis

Impact

Munshi by Petpooja has a stored cross‑site scripting flaw that lets an authenticated user inject malicious markup into the Purchase Inquiry thread. The bad content is assigned to innerHTML before the message is fully sanitized, so any browser that renders the thread runs the attacker’s script. This can deface pages and run arbitrary code in the victim’s browser when the thread is opened again.

Affected Systems

Petpooja’s Munshi platform, versions released before 2026‑07‑13, is affected. The vulnerability exists in the Purchase Inquiry thread rendering code used to display messages.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 5.1, indicating a moderate severity vulnerability. EPSS data is not available and the issue is not in the CISA KEV catalog, so the overall likelihood of exploitation is uncertain. Attackers need authenticated access to the platform to submit the malicious payload, but once stored the script executes in other users’ browsers, giving the attacker JavaScript execution and full-page defacement. The risk is significant for environments where users freely post purchase inquiries.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the Munshi application to version 2026‑07‑13 or later when the patch is released.
  • Modify the rendering logic to fully sanitize all user‑supplied content before assigning it to innerHTML or switch to safe rendering methods that escape markup.
  • Implement a strict Content Security Policy that blocks inline script execution and limits the sources of executable scripts.
