Technical details
This is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the PATCH /api/v1/system/assistant/ui endpoint. An authenticated attacker can submit an SVG file containing embedded JavaScript as the assistant UI logo. SQLBot stores the unsanitized SVG file and later serves it inline (same origin) via GET /api/v1/system/assistant/picture/{filename}. When another user accesses the logo, the embedded JavaScript executes within the SQLBot application context with access to the victim's session cookies and capabilities. The fix in version 1.9.0 removes SVG support entirely from the logo upload, restricting uploads to JPG and PNG formats only.
