CVE-2026-25432: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in omnipressteam Omnipress
Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in omnipressteam Omnipress omnipress allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Omnipress: from n/a through <= 1.6.7.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-25432 identifies a Stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Omnipress software developed by omnipressteam, affecting all versions up to 1.6.7. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of user-supplied input during the generation of web pages, allowing malicious scripts to be stored on the server and subsequently executed in the browsers of users who access the affected pages. Stored XSS is particularly dangerous because the injected payload persists and can affect multiple users without requiring repeated attacker interaction. The vulnerability does not require authentication, meaning attackers can exploit it remotely without valid credentials, and user interaction is limited to visiting a compromised page. This can lead to theft of session cookies, redirection to malicious sites, or execution of unauthorized actions within the context of the victim's session. Although no public exploits are currently reported, the nature of Stored XSS vulnerabilities makes them attractive targets for attackers. The lack of a CVSS score indicates that the vulnerability is newly published and pending further assessment. The vulnerability affects organizations using Omnipress, a platform likely employed in content management and publishing workflows. The absence of patch links suggests that fixes may not yet be publicly available, emphasizing the need for proactive mitigation. The vulnerability was reserved and published in early 2026, indicating recent discovery and disclosure.
Potential Impact
For European organizations, this vulnerability poses significant risks, especially those relying on Omnipress for content management or digital publishing. Successful exploitation could compromise user accounts, leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information, manipulation of published content, or distribution of malware through trusted websites. The persistent nature of Stored XSS increases the attack surface, potentially affecting multiple users and damaging organizational reputation. Confidentiality and integrity of data are primarily at risk, while availability impact is minimal. Given the widespread use of web applications in European digital infrastructure, exploitation could facilitate broader attacks such as phishing campaigns or lateral movement within networks. Organizations in sectors like media, education, and government that use Omnipress are particularly vulnerable. The lack of known exploits currently provides a window for mitigation, but the ease of exploitation and absence of authentication requirements elevate the threat level.
Mitigation Recommendations
Organizations should immediately audit their Omnipress installations and monitor for suspicious activity. Although no patches are currently linked, they should prioritize applying any forthcoming updates from omnipressteam. In the interim, implement strict input validation and output encoding on all user-supplied data to prevent script injection. Deploy Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict execution of unauthorized scripts and reduce XSS impact. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules targeting XSS payloads to detect and block exploitation attempts. Conduct security awareness training for users to recognize suspicious content and report anomalies. Regularly review logs for unusual behavior indicative of exploitation. If feasible, isolate or limit access to vulnerable Omnipress instances until patches are available. Engage with omnipressteam for timely vulnerability disclosures and remediation guidance. Finally, consider adopting security headers such as HttpOnly and Secure flags on cookies to mitigate session hijacking risks.
