Material for MkDocs is a powerful documentation framework built on top of MkDocs. From 7.2.0 until 9.7.7, the mountSearchSuggest function in src/templates/assets/javascripts/components/search/suggest/index.ts contains a DOM-based cross-site scripting vulnerability in the optional search.suggest feature that allows a crafted q URL parameter to execute JavaScript in a documentation site's origin after user interaction. This issue is fixed in version 9.7.7.
CVE-2026-73295
This medium-severity CVE scores 5.4 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 92% 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).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
