Description

CVE-2026-123765 is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Apache Sling XSS prior to version 2.4.14. The vulnerability arises because the xssAPI.getStyleToken() function improperly neutralizes input, allowing markup in unquoted URLs. This flaw can lead to injection of malicious scripts during web page generation. The issue is fixed in Apache Sling XSS version 2.4.14.
