Published: 07/09/2026 (07/09/2026, 15:44:04 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: Tag plugin
Product: GLPI 11

Description

The Tag plugin for GLPI 11 before 2.14.4 stores the tag name without HTML sanitization and renders it into the Kanban badge markup via PluginTagTag::preKanbanContent() without output escaping, resulting in stored cross-site scripting. An authenticated user with TAG MANAGEMENT create or update rights can set a tag name containing HTML, which then executes in the browser of any user who opens the Kanban view of a ticket, problem, change, or project the tag is attached to.

Technical Analysis

The Tag plugin for GLPI 11 before version 2.14.4 improperly neutralizes input during web page generation, specifically in the PluginTagTag::preKanbanContent() function. It stores tag names without sanitizing HTML and renders them directly into the Kanban badge markup without escaping output. This results in a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability exploitable by authenticated users with tag management create or update rights. The malicious script executes in the context of any user who views the Kanban view of an item tagged with the crafted tag name.

Potential Impact

An attacker with authenticated access and tag management privileges can inject malicious HTML/JavaScript into tag names. This code executes in the browsers of other users viewing the Kanban view, potentially leading to session hijacking, credential theft, or other malicious actions within the GLPI application context. The vulnerability affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability of user sessions and data accessible via the GLPI interface.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict tag management create or update rights to trusted users only to reduce risk. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply any released patches promptly.
