## What is CVE-2025-58768?

CVE-2025-58768 is a critical vulnerability in ThinkInAIXYZ deepchat, published on 9 Sep 2025. 

### Official description

DeepChat is a smart assistant uses artificial intelligence. Prior to version 0.3.5, in the Mermaid chart rendering component, there is a risky operation of directly using `innerHTML` to set user content. Therefore, any malicious content rendered via Mermaid will directly trigger the exploit chain, leading to command execution. This vulnerability is primarily caused by a failure to fully address the existing XSS issue in the project, leading to another exploit chain. The exploit chain is consistent with the report GHSA-hqr4-4gfc-5p2j, executing arbitrary JavaScript code via XSS and arbitrary commands via exposed IPC. Version 0.3.5 contains an updated fix.

Weakness: CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation), CWE-94 (Improper Control of Generation of Code)
