An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-104477 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: showdownjs showdown. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-104477/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-104477/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-104477","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-104477/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-104477","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gc85-xrjc-cv75"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"JavaScript Markdown library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts via crafted markdown links or images due to unescaped quotes in href and src attributes.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Showdown through 2.1.0 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the makehtml link and image subparsers, which fail to escape double quotes in destination URLs placed into href and src attributes.
