Technical Analysis

JetBrains YouTrack before version 2026.2.18068 is affected by a stored XSS vulnerability (CVE-2026-75048) via the fenced code-block language label. This vulnerability allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts that are stored persistently and executed when other users view the affected content. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation). The CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.2, indicating high severity, with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, scope changed, high confidentiality impact, low integrity impact, and no availability impact.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of other users, potentially leading to information disclosure (high confidentiality impact) and limited integrity impact. There is no impact on availability. The vulnerability requires user interaction and can be exploited remotely without privileges.

Mitigation Recommendations
