CWE-79Published: September 3, 2025· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
Memos 0.22 is vulnerable to Stored Cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities by the upload attachment and user avatar features. Memos does not verify the content type of the uploaded data and serve it back as is. An authenticated attacker can use this to elevate their privileges when the stored XSS is viewed by an admin.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2025-56761 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-79): Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities allow attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users.
