Threats tagged 'cwe-474'

CVE-2026-24010 is a high-severity file upload vulnerability in horilla versions prior to 1.5.0, an open-source Human Resource Management System. Authenticated attackers can upload malicious HTML files disguised as profile pictures, enabling phishing attacks by presenting fake login pages to users. This allows credential theft and potential account takeover without requiring user interaction beyond visiting the malicious URL. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of special elements in output used by downstream components (CWE-74). Although no known exploits are currently in the wild, the impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability is high. The issue is patched in version 1.5.0.
