AI-suggested
Upgrade SQLBot to version 1.9.0 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. The fix involves proper sanitization and validation of SVG content uploaded via the assistant UI logo endpoint. Until upgrading, restrict authenticated uploader privileges to trusted users and avoid loading untrusted SVG content inline.
Description
CVE-2026-53555 is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in dataease SQLBot versions prior to 1.9.0. An authenticated user can upload an SVG image containing malicious JavaScript via a PATCH request. The application stores this SVG without sanitization and later serves it inline, allowing the embedded script to execute in the context of other users' sessions. This can lead to unauthorized actions and data access within the victim's session. The issue is fixed in version 1.9.0.
