Technical details

A stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Frappe Framework version 16.10.10. The vulnerability is located in the Tag Pill Renderer, specifically within the '_user_tags' component. The root cause is the improper neutralization of input during web page generation (CWE-79), where the renderer interpolates tag content into HTML attributes and element content without sufficient escaping. An authenticated attacker with low privileges can store a malicious payload in a tag; when an administrative user or another victim views a list or report containing that tag, the payload executes in the context of their session. This can lead to session hijacking or unauthorized data modification.
