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. Who knew that your favorite file-sharing service could also double as a JavaScript execution platform? Time to upgrade, lest your browser becomes a victim of the next impromptu script-kiddie party!
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.
