EchelonGraph scoreLOW confidence

This high-severity CVE scores 8.6 under the CNA's CVSS (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit-prediction score not yet available (the EPSS model rescores nightly; freshly-published CVEs typically appear within 48 hours). 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).

StarCitizenWiki Extension Embed Video: Stored XSS via unsanitized class passed to template

Summary

The user supplied class value is fed directly into the sprintf call that creates HTML. You can add a quote to escape the class and then inject arbitrary html/javascript to the final output.

Details

The template here adds a figure with a class that is substituted in. This value is provided to sprintf here, an unescaped version of the class supplied by the user.

$template = <<
        %s%s%s%s
    
HTML;

PoC

Note the double quote immediately following the single quote to escape the class attribute in the template:
dQw4w9WgXcQ

Impact

Arbitrary HTML can be inserted into the DOM by any user on any page, allowing for JavaScript to be executed.
