CVE-2026-62346open-wanderer wanderer cross-site scripting
CVE-2026-62346 is a cross-site scripting in open-wanderer wanderer, rated high (7.6 on CVSS 3.1).
Why this priority: High severity, with no exploitation signal yet.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Received
What it is
Input is written into a web page without escaping, so an attacker's script runs in the browser of anyone who views it.
How it is reached
An attacker can exploit it over the network, with an ordinary user account, but someone has to act first, such as opening a file or following a link.
What an attacker gains
A successful attack can read the data it protects. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker act inside a signed-in user's browser session. The damage can spread past the vulnerable component into others.
Is it being exploited?
CISA's SSVC assessment notes a public proof of concept.
What to do
- Upgrade open-wanderer wanderer to 0.19.3 or later.
- Until it is patched, review who holds accounts that can reach it.
- Warn the people who use it, and filter files and links on the way in.
Description from NVD
Wanderer is a self-hosted trail database for saving and sharing adventures. Prior to 0.19.3, an authenticated local user can submit crafted waypoint.name and waypoint.icon values that the trail elevation graph interpolates into an innerHTML template in web/src/lib/vendor/maplibre-elevation-profile/elevationprofile.ts without HTML encoding or icon validation. A victim viewing the elevation profile executes the attacker-controlled script in their browser. Separately, federated waypoints can deliver the same malicious fields across instances without requiring the attacker to have a local account on the receiving instance. The script can expose session data or perform actions in the victim's context. This issue is fixed in version 0.19.3.
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
Components it touches
- Web front ends and single-page apps. The flaw sits between a user's browser and the web application.
- Admin consoles served to a browser. The flaw sits between a user's browser and the web application.
Trust boundaries in play
- Authenticated network access. An account is needed, so exposure follows who can sign in: customers, partners or staff.
- People who open files and links. Mail, chat and browsers are the delivery path.
- Isolation between components. The impact crosses out of the vulnerable component into others it should be isolated from.
- Between a user's browser and the web application. An attacker who crosses it can act inside a signed-in user's browser session.
Questions to answer about your own systems
- Where does open-wanderer wanderer run in your systems, and at which version?
- Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
- What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
