CVE-2026-27505
CWE-79Published: February 20, 2026· Updated: Feb 23, 2026
Official Description
SVXportal version 2.5 and prior contain a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the user registration workflow (index.php submitting to admin/user_action.php). User-supplied fields such as Firstname, lastname, and email are stored in the backend database without adequate output encoding and are later rendered in the administrator interface (admin/users.php), allowing an unauthenticated remote attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes in an administrator's browser upon viewing the affected page.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-27505 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation does not require any privileges, though user interaction (Required) is needed, which slightly reduces the risk of mass automated attacks.
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.
