CVSS critical 9.0

Overview

Description
In ERPNext v15.83.2 and Frappe Framework v15.86.0, improper validation of uploaded SVG avatar images allows attackers to embed malicious JavaScript. The payload executes when an administrator clicks the image link to view the avatar, resulting in stored cross-site scripting (XSS). Successful exploitation may lead to account takeover, privilege escalation, or full compromise of the affected ERPNext instance.

  1. ERP is a free and open source Enterprise Resource Planning tool. In versions up to 15.98.0 and 16.0.0-rc.1 and through 16.6.0, certain endpoints lacked access validation which allowed for unauthorized document access. This issue has been fixed in versions 15.98.1 and 16.6.1.•CVE-2026-27471
  2. Frappe is a full-stack web application framework. Prior to 14.99.14 and 15.94.0, an attacker could craft a malicious signup URL for a frappe site which could lead to an open redirect (or reflected XSS, depending on the crafted payload) when a user signs up. This vulnerability is fixed in 14.99.14 and 15.94.0.•CVE-2026-25956
  3. ERPNext thru 15.88.1 does not sanitize or remove certain HTML tags specifically `<a>` hyperlinks in fields that are intended for plain text. Although JavaScript is blocked (preventing XSS), the HTML is still preserved in the generated PDF document. As a result, an attacker can inject malicious clickable links into an ERP-generated PDF. Since PDF files generated by the ERP system are generally considered trustworthy, users are highly likely to click these links, potentially enabling phishing attacks or malware delivery. This issue occurs in the Add Quality Goal' function.•CVE-2025-65924
  4. A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability was discovered within the CSV import mechanism of ERPNext thru 15.88.1 when using the Update Existing Recordsoption. An attacker can embed malicious JavaScript code into a CSV field, which is then stored in the database and executed whenever the affected record is viewed by a user within the ERPNext web interface. This exposure may allow an attacker to compromise user sessions or perform unauthorized actions under the context of a victim's account.•CVE-2025-65923
  5. Frappe is a full-stack web application framework. Versions 14.99.5 and below and 15.0.0 through 15.80.1 include requests that are vulnerable to path traversal attacks. Arbitrary files from the server could be retrieved due to a lack of proper sanitization on some requests. This issue is fixed in versions 14.99.6 and 15.88.1. To workaround, changing the setup to use a reverse proxy is recommended.•CVE-2025-68953
