Vulnerability details

parisneo/lollms-webui version 9.6 is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and Open Redirect due to inadequate input validation and processing of SVG files during the upload process. The XSS vulnerability allows attackers to embed malicious JavaScript code within SVG files, which…

is executed upon rendering, leading to potential credential theft and unauthorized data access. The Open Redirect vulnerability arises from insufficient URL validation within SVG files, enabling attackers to redirect users to malicious websites, thereby exposing them to phishing attacks, malware distribution, and reputation damage. These vulnerabilities are present in the application's functionality to send files to the AI module.

Classification Reason
parisneo/lollms-webui is a web UI platform for running and interacting with large language models (LLMs), fitting 'Other Platforms' as it is neither a framework, library, nor specific to NLP/Transformers, CV, etc., but a broader AI deployment platform. The vulnerability occurs in file upload to the AI module.

Why these techniques?

XSS via malicious SVG enables SVG smuggling (T1027.017), JavaScript execution (T1059.007), stealing web session cookies (T1539) and browser credentials (T1555.003). Open redirect facilitates spearphishing links (T1566.002). Vulnerabilities exploit public-facing web app (T1190).

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.

CA-8 Penetration Testing
addresses: CWE-79

Penetration testing submits XSS payloads to web applications, detecting cross-site scripting flaws for subsequent remediation.

SI-10 Information Input Validation
addresses: CWE-79

Validates web inputs to reject script-related content that could produce XSS.

SI-15 Information Output Filtering
addresses: CWE-79

Output validation against expected content can reject or sanitize script content in generated web pages, reducing XSS exploitability.
