Copyparty XSS Woes: When JavaScript Crashes the Party!

CVE-2025-54589 is a reflected XSS vulnerability in Copyparty (≤ 1.18.6). The filter parameter is improperly sanitized, allowing an attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript into a victim’s browser. It’s like letting a clown into a library—chaos ensues, but with JavaScript instead of balloon animals.

Hot Take:

Ah, Copyparty 1.18.6, where “sharing is caring” takes on a whole new meaning thanks to a reflected XSS vulnerability.

Key Points:

  • Reflected XSS vulnerability found in Copyparty versions ≤ 1.18.6.
  • Exploited via unsanitized filter parameter in HTML response.
  • Allows execution of arbitrary JavaScript in a victim’s browser.
  • Exploits could lead to data theft, session hijacking, or phishing attacks.
  • Users urged to update to a patched version or implement input sanitation.
