Element maps-ng V47 < V47.12.3
Element maps-ng V48 < V48.11.3
Element maps-ng V49 < V49.16.1
Summary
The si-map component does not properly neutralize user-controllable input of the points property that is used to render the tooltip label of map pins. This could allow an attacker to craft a malicious URL that, when loaded by a victim and the map pin is hovered over, executes arbitrary script code within the victim's browser session.
Remediation
Update to V47.12.3 or later version

What, why and how
A vulnerability has been identified in Element maps-ng V47 (All versions < V47.12.3), Element maps-ng V48 (All versions < V48.11.3), Element maps-ng V49 (All versions < V49.16.1). The si-map component does not properly neutralize user-controllable input of the points property that is used to render the tooltip label of map pins.
This could allow an attacker to craft a malicious URL that, when loaded by a victim and the map pin is hovered over, executes arbitrary script code within the victim's browser session.
What
A vulnerability has been identified in Element maps-ng V47 (All versions < V47.12.3), Element maps-ng V48 (All versions < V48.11.3), Element maps-ng V49 (All versions < V49.16.1). The si-map component does not properly neutralize user-controllable input of the points property that is used to render the tooltip label of map pins.
This could allow an attacker to craft a malicious URL that, when loaded by a victim and the map pin is hovered over, executes arbitrary script code within the victim's browser session.
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 low privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

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.None recorded
No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.
Likely attack path
a network path → Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor

Weakness ?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
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.
