Summary

CVE-2026-55452 is a medium-severity Improper Neutralization of Formula Elements in a CSV File (CWE-1236) vulnerability in Snipeitapp Snipe-It. Its CVSS base score is 4.8 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique User Execution (T1204); ranked at the 35th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-15 (Information Output Filtering) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.5.0, Actionlog::logaction() stores the request User-Agent header and ReportsController::postActivityReport() writes that value to the Activity Report CSV without formula escaping, allowing a low-privileged authenticated user to store a formula-like User-Agent that…

may execute when a report viewer opens the exported CSV in spreadsheet software. This issue is fixed in version 8.5.0.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-15 Information Output Filtering good match

Output filtering/validation directly stops unneutralized formula elements from being written into CSV files.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
blocks

Secure SDLC practices directly require output neutralization for untrusted CSV content to block formula injection.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing in development can detect formula injection but does not itself implement the mitigation.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly require neutralization of special characters when writing CSV files.
