CVE-2026-38432: n/a
ERPNext versions up to v15. 103. 1 contain a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Email Template engine. This flaw allows an attacker with permissions to create or edit email templates to inject malicious JavaScript code. The injected code executes in the browser of any user who views the affected email template. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently provided. There is no evidence of known exploits in the wild at this time.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-38432 is a Cross Site Scripting vulnerability affecting ERPNext up to version 15.103.1. The vulnerability exists in the Email Template engine, where an attacker with the ability to create or modify email templates can embed malicious JavaScript. When the compromised template is rendered in a user's browser, the script executes, potentially leading to unauthorized actions or data exposure within the context of the user's session.
Potential Impact
An attacker who has permission to create or edit email templates can execute arbitrary JavaScript in the browsers of users who view the affected templates. This can lead to session hijacking, unauthorized actions, or other client-side impacts typical of XSS vulnerabilities. However, exploitation requires the attacker to have template editing privileges, limiting the attack surface.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict permissions to create or edit email templates to trusted users only. Monitor vendor channels for updates regarding patches or mitigations.
