CVE-2026-114128: Astro: Reflected/Stored XSS via unescaped <script>/<style> tag content in JSX/MDX rendering

MediumCVSS 6.5 · v3.1—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.32% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: withastro astro 7.3.2.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to withastro astro 7.3.2 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Astro is a web framework for content-driven websites. Prior to 7.3.2, Astro's JSX and MDX rendering pipeline treats string children of script and style elements as trusted HTML without distinguishing compiler-generated literal content from dynamic expression values. An application that passes attacker-controlled data directly as a dynamic child can allow a value containing a closing script or style tag to terminate the element and inject arbitrary HTML and JavaScript. Other JSX expression contexts escape dynamic strings automatically; the issue is limited to script and style children rendered through the astro:jsx renderer, including MDX components. Successful exploitation can produce reflected or stored cross-site scripting under the application's origin. This issue is fixed in 7.3.2.
