Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • A structured source references public exploit or proof-of-concept material.
  • EPSS is 0.35% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
  • Restrict the affected network interface to trusted sources where business-safe.
  • Increase monitoring for the attack path and post-exploitation behaviour described in the report.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs grokability snipe-it and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: Within 3 daysRemediation target: Within 90 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

EUVD-2026-86292

No EUVD known-exploited evidence

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.7.0, a user with the customfields.create permission can store markup in CustomField.name, and app/Presenters/AssetPresenter.php assigns that value as an unescaped bootstrap-table header title. When another user opens an asset-list page associated with the fieldset, the stored markup executes on page load in that user's Snipe-IT session. This can expose same-origin data and perform authenticated actions with the victim's privileges, including privilege escalation when a superuser views the affected list. This issue is fixed in version 8.7.0.

What, why and how

Prior to 8.7.0, a user with the customfields.create permission can store markup in CustomField.name, and app/Presenters/AssetPresenter.php assigns that value as an unescaped bootstrap-table header title.

This issue is fixed in version 8.7.0.

Why

Attacker-controlled content can reach a browser as executable script without sufficient output encoding or sanitisation.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation with elevated privileges. If successful, the issue may gain additional privileges.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
Reference recorded

A structured CVE source labels at least one public reference as exploit material. BlackTree has not independently validated that it is safe, reliable or weaponised.

Likely attack path
a network path → Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') → gain additional privileges

CWE-79 ↗

CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'). The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.

BSI · German · WID-SEC-2026-2981Snipe-IT: Mehrere Schwachstellen

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Snipe-IT ausnutzen, um beliebigen Code auszuführen, erweiterte Berechtigungen zu erlangen, Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, Cross-Site-Scripting-Angriffe zu starten, sensible Informationen offenzulegen, Daten zu manipulieren, Konten zu übernehmen oder Denial-of-Service-Zustände herbeizuführen.

Official advisory ↗
JVN iPedia · Japanese · JVNDB-2026-036123Grokability, Inc.のSnipe-ITにおけるクロスサイトスクリプティングの脆弱性

Snipe-ITはIT資産・ライセンス管理システムです。バージョン8.7.0以前では、customfields.create権限を持つユーザーがCustomField.nameにマークアップを保存でき、app/Presenters/AssetPresenter.phpがその値をエスケープせずにbootstrap-tableのヘッダータイトルとして割り当てていました。別のユーザーがこのフィールドセットに関連付けられた資産一覧ページを開くと、保存されたマークアップがそのユーザーのSnipe-ITセッションのページ読み込み時に実行されます。これにより、同一生成元ポリシーに違反してデータが漏えいし、被害者の権限で認証された操作を行うことが可能となり、さらにスーパーユーザーが影響を受けた一覧を閲覧した場合に権限昇格が発生する恐れがあります。この問題はバージョン8.7.0で修正されています。
