Technical Analysis

This vulnerability in M-Files Web prior to version 26.8.16330.2 enables an authenticated vault administrator to inject arbitrary CSS into the web interface. This CSS injection can alter the appearance or behavior of the web UI for other users accessing the vault. The issue is categorized under CWE-79, indicating improper input neutralization during web page generation. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 4.8 (medium severity), with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and requiring privileges of a high-level authenticated user with user interaction.

Potential Impact

An authenticated vault administrator can inject arbitrary CSS that affects the web interface displayed to other vault users.
