CVE-2026-54705

MEDIUMPre-NVD 6.36.3
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 6.3 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 89% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

MathLive provides web components for math display and input. Prior to 0.110.0, MathLive fails to escape text-mode content in \text{} and \mbox{} commands in Box.toMarkup at src/core/box.ts, in xmlEscape, scanText, and text-mode output in src/formats/atom-to-math-ml.ts, and through convertLatexToMarkup, convertLatexToMathMl, , , and the default identity MathfieldElement.createHTML, allowing malicious input to run arbitrary JavaScript when rendered. This issue is fixed in version 0.110.0.
