CVE-2025-62095 is a stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability classified under CWE-79, affecting Neilgee Bootstrap Modals up to version 1.3.2. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, which allows attackers to inject malicious scripts that persist in the application and execute in the context of users' browsers when the vulnerable modal is rendered. This stored XSS can lead to session hijacking, credential theft, or unauthorized actions performed on behalf of the user. The CVSS v3.1 score is 6.5 (medium), with an attack vector of network (remote exploitation), low attack complexity, requiring privileges (PR:L) and user interaction (UI:R). The scope is changed (S:C), indicating that the vulnerability affects resources beyond the vulnerable component. Confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts are all rated low but present. No patches or known exploits exist at the time of publication, but the vulnerability's presence in a widely used UI component poses a risk to web applications relying on Neilgee Bootstrap Modals. The vulnerability requires attackers to have some level of access to inject malicious input and for users to interact with the affected modal to trigger the payload. The vulnerability was reserved in October 2025 and published at the end of December 2025, indicating recent discovery. The lack of patch links suggests remediation is pending or in development.

For European organizations, this vulnerability can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, session hijacking, and potential defacement or manipulation of web application content. Organizations with public-facing web portals or internal applications using Neilgee Bootstrap Modals are at risk of attackers injecting persistent malicious scripts that execute in users' browsers. This can compromise user accounts, lead to data leakage, and facilitate further attacks such as phishing or lateral movement within networks. The medium severity indicates that while the vulnerability is exploitable remotely, it requires some privileges and user interaction, somewhat limiting its impact. However, the changed scope means that the vulnerability could affect multiple components or users beyond the initially vulnerable module, increasing potential damage. European sectors such as finance, government, healthcare, and e-commerce, which rely heavily on web applications, could face reputational damage and regulatory consequences if exploited. The absence of known exploits provides a window for proactive mitigation before widespread attacks occur.

1. Implement strict input validation on all data accepted by the Bootstrap Modals component, ensuring that potentially malicious scripts or HTML tags are sanitized or rejected. 2. Apply proper output encoding/escaping when rendering user-supplied content within modals to prevent script execution. 3. Deploy a robust Content Security Policy (CSP) that restricts the execution of inline scripts and limits sources of executable code. 4. Monitor web application logs for unusual input patterns or repeated attempts to inject scripts. 5. Isolate or sandbox modal content where feasible to reduce the impact of potential XSS payloads. 6. Engage with the vendor (Neilgee) for patches or updates and prioritize applying them once available. 7. Educate developers and security teams about secure coding practices related to XSS and modal components. 8. Conduct regular security testing, including automated scanning and manual penetration testing focused on UI components. 9. Consider implementing web application firewalls (WAF) with rules to detect and block XSS payloads targeting modal inputs. 10. Review user privilege assignments to minimize the number of users who can inject content into modals.
