CWE-79Published: June 21, 2026· Updated: Jun 23, 2026
Official Description
Craft CMS contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the editableTable.twig component when using the 'Row Heading' column type. The application fails to sanitize input within row heading default values, allowing an attacker with an administrator account (with allowAdminChanges enabled) to inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes when another user views a page containing the affected table field. Affected versions are >= 4.5.0-beta.1 through 4.16.18 and >= 5.0.0-RC1 through 5.8.22; fixed in 4.16.19 and 5.8.23.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-56383 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.
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.
