Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CNA. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-79.
Summary
Wanderer, a self-hosted trail database, is affected before 0.19.3. An authenticated user can store a crafted waypoint.icon value that is inserted unvalidated into map marker markup through insertAdjacentHTML, a flaw classified as CWE-79. Opening the affected trail map runs attacker-controlled script in the viewer's browser, which can expose session tokens or perform actions as the victim. Federated waypoint data can also reach this sink without a local account on the receiving instance.

Description from the CNA
Wanderer is a self-hosted trail database for saving and sharing adventures. Prior to 0.19.3, an authenticated user can store a crafted waypoint.icon value that createMarkerFromWaypoint() passes into FontawesomeMarker, where insertAdjacentHTML inserts the unvalidated value into map marker markup. Opening the affected trail map executes attacker-controlled script in the viewer's browser, which can expose session tokens or perform actions as the victim. Federated waypoint data can also reach the sink without a local account on the receiving instance. This issue is fixed in version 0.19.3.
