Versions 5.73.8 and below in addition to 6.0.0-alpha.1 through 6.3.1 have a Stored XSS vulnerability in html fieldtypes which allows authenticated users with field management permissions to inject malicious JavaScript that executes when viewed by higher-privileged users.

Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-27196 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires high privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), with a CVSS base score of 8.1.
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.
