Summary

Chaitin PandaWiki from 3.65.0 through 3.87.5 contains a stored cross-site scripting flaw (CWE-79). The file upload accepts HTML files with image extensions, so the stored script can run when the file is served in a browser. An unauthenticated attacker can upload such a file and lure an administrator to a crafted link, where the script can steal the session token and take over the session. A public exploit is linked in the references.

Description from the CNA

PandaWiki 3.65.0 through 3.87.5 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to upload HTML files with image extensions via /share/v1/common/file/upload. Attackers can lure administrators to /static-file/<key>?a=.pdf, bypassing the nginx attachment header to serve HTML inline and steal the panda_wiki_token JWT for session takeover.
