Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-35571)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform cross-site scripting.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the nav.mustache navigation template when rendering configuration-controlled link values into href attributes. A remote privileged user can inject a javascript: URI into a navigation item link to perform cross-site scripting.

User interaction is required, as a victim must click the malicious navigation link in the web interface.


2) Command injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-35580)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code and compromise the software supply chain.

The vulnerability exists due to command injection in GitHub Actions workflow files when processing user-controlled workflow_dispatch inputs in run blocks. A remote privileged user can supply crafted workflow inputs to execute arbitrary code and compromise the software supply chain.

Exploitation occurs within the CI/CD runner and may allow access to the job's GITHUB_TOKEN permissions and secrets from the GitHub Actions environment.


3) Command injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-35581)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary commands.

The vulnerability exists due to command injection in the Executrix utility class when processing configuration-derived PLACE_NAME values in shell commands. A remote privileged user can supply a specially crafted PLACE_NAME value to execute arbitrary commands.

Exploitation requires control over configuration values, such as through administrative access or a compromised configuration source.


4) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-35583)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to path traversal in the configuration API endpoint /api/configuration/{name} when processing crafted configuration names. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to disclose sensitive information.

The issue can be triggered by using URL-encoded variants, double-encoded sequences, or Unicode normalization to access configuration files outside the intended directory.
