CVE-2020-15274
In Wiki.js before version 2.5.162, an XSS payload can be injected in a page title and executed via the search results.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.77%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
In Wiki.js before version 2.5.162, an XSS payload can be injected in a page title and executed via the search results. While the title is properly escaped in both the navigation links and the actual page title, it is not the case in the search results. Commit a57d9af34c15adbf460dde6553d964efddf433de fixes this vulnerability (version 2.5.162) by properly escaping the text content displayed in the search results.
