CVE-2026-40028
Hayabusa versions prior to 3.8.0 contain a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in its HTML report output that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript when a user scans JSON-exported logs containing malicious content in the Computer field.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.20%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
Hayabusa versions prior to 3.8.0 contain a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in its HTML report output that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary JavaScript when a user scans JSON-exported logs containing malicious content in the Computer field. An attacker can inject JavaScript into the Computer field of JSON logs that executes in the forensic examiner's browser session when viewing the generated HTML report, leading to information disclosure or code execution.
