CVE-2026-54505: CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in mauriceboe TREK
CVE-2026-54505 is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the TREK collaborative travel planner prior to version 3.1.0. When the Journey add-on is enabled, unescaped HTML content from trip titles can be injected into the Journey page and rendered in collaborators' browsers. This allows content spoofing and UI redress attacks, although the default Content Security Policy limits script execution. The issue is fixed in version 3.1.0.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
TREK versions prior to 3.1.0, with the Journey add-on enabled, interpolate the unescaped activeSuggestion.title value into journey.frontpage.suggestionText and render it using dangerouslySetInnerHTML in the JourneyPage component. A trip owner can embed HTML in a trip title, which is then returned by the GET /api/journeys/suggestions endpoint to collaborators. This HTML is inserted directly into the DOM of the collaborator's authenticated session, enabling cross-site scripting effects such as content spoofing and UI redress. The default Content Security Policy blocks inline event handlers and script execution, reducing the impact. The vulnerability is resolved in TREK version 3.1.0.
Potential Impact
An authenticated trip owner can inject HTML content into trip titles that is rendered in collaborators' browsers, potentially allowing content spoofing and UI redress attacks. However, the default Content Security Policy mitigates script execution and inline event handlers, limiting the severity of exploitation. The vulnerability requires user interaction and authenticated privileges to exploit.
Mitigation Recommendations
This vulnerability is fixed in TREK version 3.1.0. Users and administrators should upgrade to version 3.1.0 or later to remediate this issue. No official patch or temporary fix is indicated beyond upgrading. Since this is not a cloud service, remediation depends on applying the update.
