AI Analysis
Technical Summary
Statamic CMS, a Laravel and Git-powered content management system, had an XSS vulnerability (CWE-79) in its default 'automagic' form notification email feature. Before versions 5.74.3 and 6.24.2, user-submitted values were rendered without proper escaping in notification emails, enabling unauthenticated form submitters to inject arbitrary HTML. This vulnerability was assigned CVE-2026-71435 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.1, indicating a medium severity. The vulnerability is fixed in versions 5.74.3 and 6.24.2.
Potential Impact
An unauthenticated attacker can submit a form with malicious HTML content that is included in notification emails sent to configured recipients. This can lead to cross-site scripting attacks via email clients that render the injected HTML, potentially compromising confidentiality and integrity of the email content. There is no indication of impact on availability. No known exploits in the wild have been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade Statamic CMS to version 5.74.3 or later, or 6.24.2 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed. No other mitigation or temporary workaround is indicated in the available data.
