CVE-2026-54181
An attacker who can store an unsanitized value in a color column can execute script in the browser of a user who views the CRUD list, including an administrator, with access to the victim's session-backed application capabilities.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.31%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
backpack/crud provides Create, Read, Update & Delete (CRUD) functions for Backpack, a collection of Laravel packages that help users build custom administration panels. From 6.0.0 until 6.8.14 and 7.0.38, src/resources/views/crud/columns/color.blade.php inverts the escaped and raw rendering branches controlled by $column['escaped'], which defaults to true, causing $column['text'] to be rendered unescaped by default. An attacker who can store an unsanitized value in a color column can execute script in the browser of a user who views the CRUD list, including an administrator, with access to the victim's session-backed application capabilities. Exploitation requires write access to the stored color value and a victim viewing the list. This issue is fixed in versions 6.8.14 and 7.0.38.
