Vulnerability details

Typebot is a chatbot builder tool. In versions 3.15.2 and prior, the RatingButton component in the embed package renders the user-controlled customIcon.svg field directly via Solid's innerHTML directive without any sanitization, even though DOMPurify is already a dependency and is…

used elsewhere in the codebase (e.g., StreamingBubble.tsx). Because rating blocks are not flagged as isUnsafe by the import sanitizer and the builder preview renders bots inline on the builder's own origin (builder.typebot.io) under a CSP permitting 'unsafe-inline', a malicious imported or collaborator-crafted typebot can execute arbitrary HTML/JS in the builder's authenticated context, bypassing the Web Worker sandbox that protects Script blocks during preview. This allows session hijacking and privilege escalation within the builder application. This issue has been fixed in version 3.16.0.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
T1185 Browser Session Hijacking Collection
Adversaries may take advantage of security vulnerabilities and inherent functionality in browser software to change content, modify user-behaviors, and intercept information as part of various browser session hijacking techniques.
Why these techniques?

XSS in public-facing builder app directly enables exploitation (T1190) and JS-driven session hijacking in authenticated context (T1185).
